Question

Baking pans are discounted at 15% off the regular price of $2. How much money will be saved?

Answer 1

$.30 offfffffffffffffffff

Answer 2

Answer:

15 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

First you must convert 15% to a decimal so:

"Percent" means "per 100" or "over 100". To convert 15% to a decimal rewrite 15 percent in terms of per 100 or over 100.

15 divided by 100. Completing the division we get:

15 ÷ 100 = 0.15

Therefore, we have shown that

15% = 0.15

2 - 0.15 = 1.85, therefore .15 was saved because of the discount
