Question

The price of a cinnamon roll is $2.00. The bakery has a sale, and all prices are 10% off. What is the sale price of the cinnamon roll

Answer 1

Answer: $1.80

Step-by-step explanation:

10% is 1/10. To find 1/10 of $2 we must divide it by the bottom of the fraction and times the top. 200 divided by 10 is 20 cents, times that by 1 is still 20 so, 10% = 20 cents. To find the sale price, we must subtract the discount from the original price. $2 - 20 cents is $1.80.
