Question

At the store, Austin picked out clothes that totaled $23. A prize from a contest gave him 15% off of that amount.

Answer 1

Answer:

The Price of clothes after 15 % off is $ 19.55

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The price of clothes = $ 23

The discount as a prize given on price of clothes = 15%

So , The discounted price = $ 23 - 15% of $ 23

Or,  The discounted price = $ 23 × ( $\frac{100-15}{100}$ )

Or, The discounted price = $ 23  × $\frac{85}{100}$

Or, The discounted price = $ 23  × 0.85

∴ The discounted price = $ 19.55

Hence The Price of clothes after 15 % off is $ 19.55   Answer
