Question

Nuts Berry Farm sells nuts for $60 for 4 pounds. Today, and just for today only, Nuts Berry Farm is giving a 30% discount to all those who will buy nuts today. Enter how much, in dollars, is a pound of nuts today after the discount.

Answer 1

First you do $60 divided by 4 which equals $15
Then you take 1% of 15 which is 0.15 and multiply thirty percent by that and subtract thirty percent from 100% and get 70% which is 10.5
