Your mom wants to buy you a box of Squishmallows for $54.99. She has a 25% coupon.

a) What is the amount of discount? Make sure you round to the nearest cent.

b) What is the sale price?

Answer 1

a) $13.75

b) $41.24

Explanation:

Original price: $54.99

Discount: 25%

Amount of discount: 25% of $54.99 = 25/100 × $54.99 = 0.25 × $54.99 = $13.75

Sale price: $54.99 - $13.75 = $41.24
