Answer 1

Answer:

A. P - 0.3P

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the price of the computer is P dollars and it’s on sale for 30% off.

That’s

30% /100% x P

0.3 x P

0.3P

Savings being offered on the computer is therefore

P - 0.3P

This is because 0.3P is the discounted amount and to get the sale on amount , you subtract the discounted amount from the original price P
