Answer:
She spent = 11560 pesos
Amount left = 840 pesos
Step-by-step explanation:
Mrs. Alcántara makes a purchase at the fortuna supermarket, she only has 12,400 pesos, she buys several items and her purchase is equivalent to 13,600 pesos. How much do you have to pay if they give you a 15% discount? How many was left of what he had in cash?
Amount she has = 12400pesos
Item purchased = 13600 pesos
discount = 15 %
So, the total discount on the item purchased is
= 15 % of 13600
= 0.15 x 13600
= 2040 pesos
So, the amount spent = 13600 - 2040 = 11560 pesos
Amount she left = 12400 - 11560 = 840 pesos
