Question

Meals in a hospital cafeteria are discounted 15% for all hospital employees what will an employee pay for the grilled chicken lunch which cost a non employee $8.00

Answer 1

Given that the meals in a hospital cafeteria are discounted 15% for all hospital employees,

The price an employee will pay for the grill chicken lunch worth of $8.00 will be,

`\text{ \$8.00}-(15\text{ \% of \$8.00)}`
`\begin{gathered} \text{ \$8.00-(}\frac{\text{15}}{100}*\text{ \$8.00)} \\ \text{ \$8.00-(0.15}*\text{ \$8.00)}=\text{\$8.00- \$1.2=\$6.8} \end{gathered}`

Hence, the hospital employee will pay $6.8 for the grilled chicken lunch.
