Question

A store has a jacket for $64 with a discount of 20%. Which expressions could be used to find the sale price of the jacket?

Answer 1

B) 64 (0.20)

Explanation:

When dealing with percentages you always want to convert the percentage to a decimal, in this case 20% will equal to 20/100 (0.20)

So 20% of $64

"of" means multiplication in math, so the expression is now 0.20 x 64 or 64 (0.20)
