Answer 1

Explanation:

❁
`\underline{ \underline{ \large{ \tt{ \: G \: I \: V \: E \: N}}}} :`

• Marked price ( MP ) = $ 50
• Discount % ( Dis % ) = 30 %

❁
`\underline{ \underline{ \large{ \tt{ T \: O \: \: F \: I \: N \: D}}}} :`

• Discount amount = ?

❁
`\underline{ \underline{ \large{ \tt{S \: O \: L \: U \: T \: I \: O \: N}}}} :`

`\boxed{ \sf{Discount \: amount = Dis\% \: of \:MP}}`

Plug the known values :

➝
`\large{ \tt{30\% \: of \: 50}}`

Convert 30% to fraction. For that divide 30 by 100 and remove the percentage symbol.

➝
`\large{ \tt{ (30)/(100) * 50}}`

➝
`\large{ \tt{ \bold{ \$ \: 15}}}`

`\large{ \underline{ \pink {\boxed{ \boxed{ \tt{Our \: final \: answer : \boxed{ \underline{ \bold{ \tt{ \bold{ \$ \: 15}}}}}}}}}}}`

Hope I helped ! ♡

Have a wonderful day! ツ
