Question

McCleary's Office Supply Store is having a sale on desk chairs. All chairs are 33% off the original price. The original price of one chair is $183.00. What is the sale price?

A. $60.39

B. $150.00

C. $122.61

D. $176.96

I think it's D.

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

If you received 33% off then you paid 67% of the price. To find the sale price, write a proportion.

`(67)/(100)=(x)/(183)`

To solve cross multiply.

100x = 67*183

100x= 12261

x = 122.61
