1 : Turn 20% into a decimal.

20% as a decimal would be: 0.20. Or .20.


2 : Take 10 and times it by 0.20.

10 x 0.20 = 2


3 : Take 10 and subtract it by the last answer- 2.

10 - 2 = 8


4 : Put the dollar sign on you answer so we know it's in money.

= $8


And we're done!


Hope helps-Aparri

8 dollars
