Question

Fran has a coupon for 15% off any toy at the department store. She buys a toy for $73. How much does Fran save on the toy with her coupon?​

Answer 1

Fran saves $10.95 on the toy with her 15% off coupon.

Explanation:

Fran saves 15% on the toy, which is $73.

To calculate the savings, you can multiply the original price by the discount percentage:

Savings=Original Price x Discount Percentage/100

In this case Savings = $73 x 15%/100

Simply the 15% gives you 0.15

Rewrite your equation

Savings = 75 x 0.15

Savings = $10.95

Therefore, Fran saves $10.95 on the toy with her 15% off coupon.
