Given

A store is having a sale where customers can buy one shirt and get a second shirt for 30% off.

Kate wants to buy two shirts priced at $19 each.

Find out how much will she pay

To proof

let the total money kate pay be x.

As given in the question

Kate wants to buy two shirts priced at $19 each

in sale customers can buy one shirt and get a second shirt for 30% off.

First write 30% in the decimal form


=(30)/(100)

= 0.3

than the equation written in the form

x = 19 + (19 - 0.3× 19)

x = 19 +( 19 - 5.7)

x = 19 + 13.3

x =$ 32.3

Kate pay $ 32.3

Hence proved
