Now multiply this reduced fraction by the number of celery sticks:
44 ×
=
The fraction
can be reduced to a value of 11. We have now proven that
11 celery sticks received peanut butter.

A=P×(0.8)
A is the price after the markdown
P is the original price
0.8 is the multiplier because 1-(80/100)=0.8
80/100 is the same as 80%, which is the remaining value when 20% of the value of the item is deducted.
