Question

You have $75.00 to spend at the mall. You want to buy a hoodie that costs $80.00. The store is having a 20%-off sale. (There is no tax on clothing.) Can you buy the hoodie? If so, how much money will you have left?

Answer 1

hey there i see you need help so i am here to do just that you CAN buy the hoodie because 20% of 80.00 is 16 so you subtract 16 from 80.00 and get 64  

Answer 2

ok so find 20% off and see if less tha 75
percent means parts out of 100
20% means 20/100=1/5

'of' means multiply

20% of 80=1/5 times 80=16

off means subtract
disctoun tof 16 is 80-16=64
64<75

how much left over
75-spent=left over
75-64=11


anwwer is $11 left over and enough money to buy
