Question

1a. A plant is $24 with a discount of 25% off. What is the discount ? (The
amount you save)

Answer 1

The discount is $6, and the original price with the discount is $18.

Explanation:

First we need to convert the percent 25%. into a decimal, 0.25.

Now we need to multiply the cost and the percentage. 24 × 0.25 = 6.

The discount is $6.

Now we need to subtract the original price and the discount.

$24 - $6 = $18.

Answer 2

25% = 25/100 = 0.25
24 * discount percent
24 * 0.25 = 6
Solution: $6
