Question

Kenneth bought a new shirt. It was $28.00 and there was a 35% discount. He gave the cashier $20. What was his change?

Answer 1

£1.80

Explanation:

To find Kenneth's change, we need to calculate the discounted price of the shirt first. The discount is 35%, so the discounted price is:

Discounted Price=

Original Price−(Discount Percentage×Original Price)

Discounted Price=Original Price−(Discount Percentage×Original Price)

Discounted Price=28.00−(0.35×28.00)

Now, calculate the discounted price:

Discounted Price=28.00−9.80

Discounted Price=18.20

So, after the discount, the shirt costs £18.20.

Kenneth gave the cashier £20, and his change is:

Change=Amount Given−Cost

Change=20.00−18.20

Change=1.80

Therefore, Kenneth's change is £1.80.

Answer 2

Answer: $10.20

Explanation:

35% of $28.00 is $9.80. So, subtract 20 from 9.8 and your answer is 10.2, or $10.20.
