Question

Katie bought her mom a collage photo frame at Hobby Lobby . The regular price of the frame was $ 45, but Katie had a " 20% off" coupon . How much did Katie save ?

Answer 1

Katie has saved $ 9

Solution:

Given that The regular price of the frame was $ 45

Katie had a " 20% off" coupon

To find: amount saved by Katie

The amount saved by Katie can be found by finding the difference between regular price and price after offer

Let us first find the price after offer

price after offer = regular price - 20% offer on regular price

price = 45 - 20% of 45

`price = 45 - (20)/(100) * 45\\\\price = 45 - 9 = 36`

Thus the price after 20% offer is 36

amount saved by Katie = regular price - price after offer

amount saved by Katie = 45 - 36 = 9

Thus Katie has saved $ 9
