Question

Luis bought a car from a dealership that was offering a 22% discount off the original price c. Which of the following represents the total amount after the discount for Luis’s car before taxes?A) 0.22cB) 0.78cC) 78c

Answer 1

Let c represent the price of Car.

Since he was offered a 22% discount, the total amount after discount will be:

Subtract 22 from 100 since it's in percentage

100 - 22 = 78% = 0.78

Thus, the new price of the car after discount is: 0.78c

ANSWER:

B) 0.78c
