Question

If the original pair of a pair of shoes is $80 but a sign above the shoes reads “ Sale - 20% discount”, then what price would a customer pay for the shoes (excluding tax)?

A. 64
B. 80
C. 60
D. 16
E. 6

Answer 1

A. 64

Explanation:

The shoes are 80 dollars. We get a 20% discount

Discount = 80*20%

= 80*.20

=16

The sales price = original price less the discount

= 80 -16

= 64
