Question

Orginal price: $23.90; Markdown; 44%

Answer 1

if it is 44% off, then u r actually paying 56%

56% of 23.90.....turn ur percent to a decimal..." of " means multiply
0.56 * 23.90 = 13.384 rounds to 13.38 <==

or u could do it this way...

23.90 - 0.44(23.90) = 23.90 - 10.52 = 13.38 <==

Answer 2

44% = 0.44

Multiply 23.90 with 0.44

23.90 x 0.44 = 10.52 (rounded)

Subtract the number gotten from the original

23.90 - 10.52 = 13.38

$13.38 is the new price.

hope this helps
