Answer 1

Question:

A shop is having a sales all items are reduced by 25%. Work out the sale price of an item normally priced at £60?

Answer:

The new price is £45

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Sales\ price = \pounds 60$

$Rate = 25\%$

First, calculate the reduction

$Reduction = Rate * Sales\ price$

$Reduction = 25\% * \pounds 60$

$Reduction = \pounds 15$

The new price is:

$New = Sales\ price - Reduction$

$New = \pounds 60 - \pounds 15$

$New = \pounds 45$
