Question

Academy is offering a 12% discount on all of their sporting good supplies. What would be the sale cost of a basketball with an original price of $140?

Answer 1

$123.20

Explanation:

First, convert 12% into a decimal, 12% = .12, now we multiply the discount by the original, so .12x140 which equals $16.80 then we subtract 16.8 from 140 giving you $123.20.

Answer 2

123.2 dollars for the sale price.
