Question

A bracelet costs $39.59 including tax.It is marked down 25 percent.What is the final price of the bracelet after it is marked down?

Answer 1

Hence, the final price of bracelet is:

$ 29.6925

Explanation:

A bracelet costs $39.59 including tax.

It is marked down 25 percent.

Now the final price of the bracelet will be given as:

Final Price=Cost of bracelet including tax- Mark Down price.

Cost of bracelet is given= $ 39.59

Now, the mark down price of the bracelet is:

25% of price of bracelet.

=25% of 39.59

`=(25)/(100)* 39.59\\\\=\$9.8975`

Hence, the final price of bracelet is calculated as:

`39.59-9.8975\\\\=\$ 29.6925`

Hence, the final price of bracelet is:

$ 29.6925

Answer 2

if it is marked down 25% and 25% equals 25/100 then you simply take 39.59 x 25/100

39.59 x 25/100 = 9.90

and then you subtract that from the original price

39.59 - 9.90 = $29.69

after it is marked down, the price is $29.69
