Question

A $50 pair of shoes is discounted by 15%. What will be the new price of the shoes?

I need help ASAP

Answer 1

42.50

Explanation:

50 * 0.15 ( which you get by doing 15 ÷ 100) = 7.5, the discount amount.

50.00 - 7.5 = 42.50.

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

$42.50

Explanation:

Multiply 50 by .15 to find how much you save, then subtract from 50 to find the new price.
