The answer will turn out to be 26.87
Take the original price, multiply it by 20% (you have to move the decimal place two to the left, so it becomes .2), then subtract the answer from the original price.
39.99*.2= $7.998
39.99-7.998= $31.99
If you wanted to, you could also round the $7.998 to $8.00. Your answer would be the same.
I divided 50 miles by 2 = 25 miles (walked) 25 miles (horseback)
I divided 25 by 3 = 8.33
I divided 25 by 9 = 3
Added together = 8.33 + 3 = 11.33
So time to complete the journey 11.33 hour
In math, value is a number signifying the result of a calculation or function. So, in the example above, you could tell your teacher that the value of 5 x 6 is 30 or the value of x + y if x = 6 and y = 3 is 9. Value can also refer to a variable or constant. also It is called a "variable" or sometimes an "unknown".
