Answer 2

Hello!

To calculate how much money Emma will pay after the 30% discount, we must multiply the cost of the candy by the percentage of discount, and then subtract the discount from the cost.

7.50 × 30% (or 0.30) = 2.25

7.50 - 2.25 = 5.25

A N S W E R:

Emma will pay $5.25 after the discount.
