Question

$64 jacket; 20% discount

Answer 1

$51.20 is the cost after a 20% reduction.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways that this can be determined.

First, we can find what 20% of the original $64 price is and subtract the discount from the price.

20% = 0.20

0.20 ( $64) = $12.80

$64 - $12.80 = $51.20

Or

We can say that $64 is 100% of the price and subtract the 20% meaning the sale price will be 80% of the original price.

100% = 1.00 20% = .20

$64(1.00-.20) = $64(.80) = $51.20

Answer 2

the correct answer is 12 dollars and 8 cents
