Question

Debbie bought a computer for 25% off the list price. If the list price is $2,428, how much did Debbie spend?

Answer 1

Given:

Debbie bought a computer for 25% off the list price.

The list price = $2,428

To find:

The amount spend by Debbie.

Solution:

We have,

The list price = $2,428

Money spend by Debbie = List price - 25% of list price

                                           $=2428-\dfrac{25}{100}(2428)$

                                           $=2428-607$

                                           $=1821$

Therefore, the amount spend by Debbie is $1821.
