Question

Justin wants to buy a new pair of jeans. If the jeans were originally $50.00, but are on sale with a 30% discount, how much will Justin have to pay for the jeans?

Answer 1

Original price of jeans=$50

Since there is a discount of 30%

So we take 100%-30%=70%

hence to find the price Justin have to pay after discount, we take $50x70/100=$35

Therefore Justin has to pay $35 for the jeans after discount.
