Question

A store down the street is selling a console 50% of from 236.87 if i were to buy the console wit my 490.45 how much money will i get back?

Answer 1

$372.01

Explanation:

50% of $236.87 is half of it, which means the console is being sold for $118.44 because:

235.87/2 = 118.435

Round this to the nearest cent:

$118.44

If you have $490.45, and you spend $118.44, it means that you subtract the cost from your own money:

490.45 - 118.44 = 372.01

You will have $372.01 left.
