Question

Brian bought a coat at 5% off of the original price of $60. Which process can Brian use to find the amount of his discount?​

Answer 1

Not sure which "process" it is. But discount amount is $3 (new price would be 57)

Explanation:

1. Equation would start with 5% x 60
2. 5% would be equivalent to the fraction 5/100
3. Take 5/100 and multiply 60
4. (60 x 5)/100 = 3 <-- discount amount
5. Take $3 off $60 and the new price is $57
