(I NEED HELP ASAP) Raven bought a TV originally priced at $225. She got a 22% discount. If she gave the cashier $200, how much change did she get back?

Answer:

She got $24.50 after paying for the tv.

Explanation:

First, you want to find what the price was after the discount. So you want to multiply 225 by .22 to get the price.

225 x .22 = 49.5

After the discount, the price is off $49.50

Now you take 225 - 49.5 and that you give you $175.50

Next, you take 200 - 175.50 and that you give you 24.5

So, She got $24.50 after paying for the tv.
