Question

Solve this problem.

A pair of inline skates that usually sells for $40 is on sale at a 30% discount.
What is the sale price?

Answer 1

$28

Explanation:

original price = $40

discount = 30%

=30/100 * 40

=$1200/100

=$12

sale price = original price - discount amount

=$40 - $12

=$28
