Answer:

$18

Explanation:

Discount formula: S = p - rp → S = 20 - (0.10×20)

S(sale price)= final amount

r(discount percentage rate)= 10% or 0.10

p(original price)= $20.00

Step 1) Convert 10% to a decimal: 0.10

S = 20 - (0.10×20)

Step 2) Multiply that by amount (0.10×20=2.00)

S = 20 - 2

Step 3) Subtract from amount (20−2.00)=$18.00

20-2=18

S=18

Sorry if that was confusing.

✨Hope this helps✨

Answer: $18

Explanation:

We know that Spanko sells every shirt for $20 dollars.

Now, there is 10% off, so we subtract 10%.

10% of $20 = $2 off

Now, we will subtract 2 from $20.

$20 - 2 = $18

Our answer is $18.
