This is the correct answer, don't worry.

Answer: <u>The employee subtracted the wrong percents.</u>

(100% − Discount %)(Original Amount) = Discounted Amount

(100% − 85%)($12) = Discounted Amount

(15%)($12) = Discounted Amount  

THE ERROR IS HERE

AGAIN  (100-DISCOUNT) = 85 %  = .85  

10.20 IS THE DISCOUNTED AMOUNT

(0.15)($12) = $1.80

The discounted price of pizza is $1.80.

Ilya [14]
At start Keenan has x strawberries. He gives Tisha x/2. Then Tisha keeps 4 strawberries and gives Suvi the rest. If y is the number of strawberries that Suvi gets:
y = x/2 - 4.
For example: Keenan has 20 strawberries. He gives Tisha 10 and Tisha gives Suvi 6:
6 = 20/2 - 4 
6 = 10 - 4
