Question

I am paying $60.00 a month for my service. I would like to upgrade to the $80.00 service package because my new employer offers a 20% discount with your company. What would be the cost difference compared to what I am paying now if I upgraded?"

Answer 1

The cost difference is $4.

Explanation:

Consider the provided information.

I am paying $60 a month for my service.

I would like to upgrade to the $80.00 service package because my new employer offers a 20% discount with your company.

If i get 20% of discount that means i need to pay only 80% of the original amount.

80% of 80 can be calculated as:

`(80)/(100)* 80`

`0.8* 80=64`

Therefore, now i need to pay $4 extra for the upgrade service.

Hence, the cost difference is $4.
