Question

Lemon goes to the store and buys a game station for $25. The store is running a discount of 15%. What is the price of the game station after the discount?

Answer 1

Answer:

$21.25

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Convert the 15% to a decimal by dividing by 100.     15 ÷ 100 = 0.15

2. Multiply the $25 by the decimal of 15%.                    25 × 0.15 = 3.75

3. Subtract your previous answer (3.75) from the original price of the game station.        25 - 3.75 = 21.75

4. Therefore the price of the game station after the discount is $21.75.
