Equation:

18.50 * 0.5 = x

18.50 * 0.5 = 9.25


Story:

John went to a store to buy a frying pan. He found the one he liked, and looked at the price. It was at 18.50 dollars. The next day, John went to the store to buy his pan, and saw that beside the price, there was something saying 50% off.

Write an equation that gives the final price of the pan.


Hope it helped,
