Question

8. Sheila buys two concert tickets from her friend.

She pays $90 for the two tickets. She looks at the
tickets and sees that each ticket has a face value
of $52.50.

B.What was the percent markdown, rounded to the nearest whole percent

Answer 1

15

Explanation:

105 - 90 = 15

Answer 2

Cost of two tickets that Sheila paid to her friend = $ 90

Actual price of 1 ticket = $ 52.50

So, actual price of 2 tickets = 52 x 2 = 105

Hence, markdown or discount Sheila's friend gave her is =

105 - 90 = 15

The answer is $15.
