Question

Last year, Mr Salim bought a car for $120 000. This year, he sold it at a discount of 10%. How much did Mr Salim sell his car for?​

Answer 1

Answer:

$108,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Decrease of 10% means he sold it at 90% of the original price.

=> 120,000 x 90%

=> 120,000 x 0.9

=> 12,000 x 9

=> $108,000

Answer 2

Answer:

$108000

Explanation:

• He sold it at a discount 10%

• sale price = 100% - discount percentage

• 100% - 10% = 90%

now the price:

→ $120 000 * 90%

→ 120 000 * $\frac{90}{100}$

→ 1200 * 90

→ $108000
