Step-by-step explanation: Multiply (0.20)(53), you get 10.6, now that's the price that is discounted, so subtract that from the total, to get $42.4. If you want to check your answer, do 42.4/53 and you would get 0.80, or 80%. That is what you should get since you have a 20% discount from 100% of a product.
