Question

A jacket was originally priced at $120 but was marked

as ‘25% off’ during a sale. What is the discount on
the jacket? What will the new sale price be?

Answer 1

The discount on the jacket is $30 (25% of $120). The new sale price will be $90 ($120 - $30).

Answer 2

90

Explanation:

The discount on the jacket is 25% of the original price. To calculate the discount amount, you can multiply the original price by the discount percentage: $120 * 0.25 = $30. So the discount on the jacket is $30.

The new sale price of the jacket would be the original price minus the discount amount: $120 - $30 = $90. So the new sale price of the jacket is $90.
