Question

An item is regularly priced at $80. It is now priced at a discount of 65% off the regular price. What is the price now?

Answer 1

If the regular price of an item is $80 and it is now discounted by 65%, then the price of the item now can be found as:

Discount = 65% of Regular price = 0.65 x $80 = $52

Price now = Regular price - Discount = $80 - $52 = $28

Therefore, the price of the item now is $28.
