Question

the sale price of a pair of pants is 65% of te regular price of $25. How much so you save by buying the pants on sale?

Answer 1

Answer: $8.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The sale price is 65% the regular price which is at $25.

Sale price = 65/100 * $25 = $16.25

Money saved = regular price - sale price

Money saved = $25 - $16.25

Money saved = $8.75

Answer 2

$25 times 0.65 = $16.25 & then you do $25 - $16.25 which equals $8.75. So you save $8.75 by buying the pants on sale.
