Question

A car dealership pays a wholesale price of $12,000 to purchase a vehicle. The car dealership wants to make a 32% profit.

2) During a special sales event, the dealership offers a 10% discount off of the retail price. After the discount, how much will a customer pay for this vehicle?
(The retail price was 15,840)

Answer 1

$14,156

Explanation:

32% of 12,000 is 3840. Add that to 12,000 and you get 15,840. Then you need to subtract 10% of 15,840 from itself. That would be 15,840-1,584, which comes out to 14,156.

I hope this helps!
