Question

Dawson purchased a pair of shoes on boxing-day that was discounted by 60% from the original price of $150.00. Calculate the amount he paid for the pair of shoes.

Answer 1

Answer: $90

Step-by-step explanation:

To find 60% of 150, you can simply use this equation, 60 X 150 divided by 100. That will leave you with 90, which is the amount he paid for the shoes. :)

Answer 2

Answer:

$60.00

Step-by-step explanation:

100 - 60 = 40% (Percentage after discount)

100% = 150

1% = 150 ÷ 100 = 1.5

40% = 1.5 x 40 = $60
