Question

Jay bought a guitar on sale at 45% off. The original price was $576.75.

Answer 1

Answer:

317.21 (sales price)

259.53 (discount amount)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to divide.

576.75/100=5.7675 (note that I will be rounding at the end)

5.7675 x 55 (100-45) = 317.2125

Rounds to: 317.21

Now, we need to find the discount amount.

 576.75

-317.21

=259.53
