Question

Zappo’s has marked down rain boots 25% during its spring sale. What is the sale price of a pair of boots with a regular price of $149.99?

Answer 1

Substract the 25% of the price to the regular price:

1. Find the 25% of the price: Multiply by 0.25 the price:

`149,99\cdot0.25\approx37.50`

2. Substract the result in step 1 (amount marked down) from the regular price:

`149,99-37,50=112.49`

Then, the sale price of the pair of boots is $112.49
