Question

A shirt marked $320.00 was sold at a discount of 5%. What was the selling price?

Answer 1

Answer:

$304.00

that is really freaking expensive shirt lol.

i thought you said shlt,  not shirt lol

anyway...

Step-by-step explanation:

320 times 0.05

(don't make the mistake of 0.5  that is 50%, not 5%. )

320*0.05= 16

subtract it

320-16= 304

Answer 2

Answer:

304

Step by step:

Using your calculator 5% of 320 is 16.

Since it was a discount, you subtract 16 since you're marking it down.

320-16=304

304 is your answer

How do I know? Well, there it takes 20+20+20+20+20 to equal a hundred. We can do this same math for this problem. 16 x 20 is 320
