Answer:

$25.5

Explanation:

Sure, so the total of the

Item:

30 Dollars ($)

and the discount price is

15 percent (%)

So 30 times 0.15 because 30 is the price in total and 0.15 is the percentage but in a decimal form.

30 times 0.15 equals 4.5

4.5 is the amount that 15 % equals.

30 minus (-) 4.5 because once again the total is 30 and since we have a discount price then we minus (-) the discount price by the total and you get

A total with the discount price as 25.5 Dollars or $25.5

Hope this helps ;)
