Answer:

a. 100 percent of 32.40 is 32.40

b. 50 percent of 32.40 is 16.20

c. 20 percent of 32.40 is 6.48

Also shown like this:

a. 32.40 divided by 1 = 32.40

b. 32.40 divided by 2 = 16.20

c. 32.40 divided by 5 = 6.48

How did i get the numbers 1, 2, and 5?

100 percent of something is also known as 1 whole

50 percent of something is known as 2 halfs.

20 percent of somthing is know as 5 out of 100.

What is the answer and how did u get it?

if you item is 20% off you need to subtract the 20%

In this case 20% is 6.48

32.40 - 6.48 = 25.92

The sale price of this item is 25.92

(hope this helps)
