Question

During the annual Black Friday Sale, The OLX sold a pair of ski boots, regularly priced at $245.00, at a discount of 40%. The boots cost $96.00 and expenses are 26% of the regular selling price. For how much were the ski boots sold?

Answer 1

Answer: $147

Explanation:

First find what 40% of $245.00 is:

= 40% * 245

= $98.00

The boots are sold at a discount of 40%. This means that 40% - which is $98 - was deducted from the value.

The selling price is therefore:

= 245 - 98

= $147
