It placed this information on its customer e-mailer and a local card retailer placed an order of $16,000.(Hint: the discount applies to the entire order) What was the dollar discount? (use $ symbol in answer)

Answer 1

order amount is

$16,000

therefore, $16,000*40%


$16,000*0.40=6400

so the discounted dollar amount is $6,400
