Question

Ashley bought a matching sofa and chair for her living room. It was originally priced at $1,859,

but was now on sale for $1,500. What was the percent of discount (percent change). Round your
answer to the nearest WHOLE PERCENT (no decimals)

Answer 1

Answer: 19%

Step-by-step explanation: (1500-1859)/1859x100 so 1500 minus 1859 over 1859 times 100 after you subtract 1500 and 1859 divide the answer -359 by 1859 and then you’ll get -0.193115 and then multiply that by 100 and you’ll get -19.3115% but since you want a whole percent you can’t round up because 3 is the next number meaning it stays the same making it 19% decrease
