Question

How do I calculate percentage

Example, like what is 9.99
But 25% off?
How do I calculate that in a calculator?? Please let me know ! I need to know because I’m a cashier at Cracker Barrel

Answer 1

Hi so you would turn 25% into a decimal(0.25) and you would multiply that times 9.99! And after you get the answer you would subtract it from the 9.99!

Answer 2

So what I’ve learned is that 6% would be turned into a decimal as 0.06 (put a point by the % and move two places to the left, then it would become a decimal)
Examples
25% 0.25
1% 0.01
100% 1.00
635% 6.35
And so on.
