Answer:

$19.20

Explanation:

First find how much 20% of 24 is.

What is 20% of 24?

Y is 20% of 24

Equation: Y = P% * X

Solving our equation for Y

Y = P% * X

Y = 20% * 24

Converting percent to decimal:

p = 20%/100 = 0.2

Y = 0.2 * 24

Y = 4.8

Then subtract that from $24

Which gives you $19.2

Hope I helped.
