Question

Your friend bought a new pair of shoes. He said the regular price was $75 but he got a 40% discount from the sales clerk. What is the sale price of the shoes

Answer 1

40% off of 75 is 45$

Explanation:

• Divide the number by 100 (move the decimal place two places to the left).

• Multiply this new number by the percentage you want to take off.

• Subtract the number from step 2 from the original number. This is your percent off number.
