Question

Popcorn 1.50 sale price 20% off

Answer 1

Normally, popcorn costs $1.50

Now, the sale price is 20% off

So, it is certainly less than $1.50

First, we will find 20% of 1.50. Then, we will subtract that amount to get the new sale price.

To get 20% of $1.50, we first convert 20% to decimal by dividing by 100, so,

20/100 = 0.20

Now, 20% of $1.50 is >>>>

`0.20*1.50=\$0.30`

This amount is LESS. So, the new sale price is

`\$1.50-\$0.30=\$1.20`NEW SALE PRICE OF POP CORN

$1.20
