Answer 1

Answer 1↷

Given that ,

The sweater shack is offering 20% discount,

and the regular price is $ 15 .00,

so, the discount given would be

⇢ $ 15 x 20/100

⇢$ 15 x 0.2

⇢$ 3

• selling price

⇢Regular price - Discount price

⇢$15 - $(20/100 x 15)

⇢$15 - $3

⇢$12

Answer 2↷

Given that,

20% out of 30 students scored an A in previous math test,

so ,the number of students who got an A in the test

⇢ 30 x 20/100

⇢30 x 0.2

⇢6

Hence ,6 students secured an A grade in last math test

Answer 3↷

Given that,

The Jean junction is selling the jeans at the discount rate of 15% of the regular price which is $25.00,

so, the discount is

⇢$25.00 x $ ( 15/100 )

⇢$25.00 x $ 0.15

⇢$3.75

• selling price

⇢ $25.00 - $25.00 x $ ( 15/100 )

⇢$25.00- $25.00 x $ 0.15

⇢$25.00 -$3.75

⇢$21.25
