Answer:

$350

Explanation:

if the sale is 30% we have to find what is 30% of 500 so we can subtracted from what we pay .

line up what you know:

$500 represents 100%

$x represents 30 %

cross multiply

x*100 = 500* 30 ; divide both sides by 100

x= 500*30 /100 = 150

the sale price is 500-150= $350
