Question

The price of an item has been reduced by 40%. The original price was $35. What is the price of the item now? ​

Answer 1

Explanation:

First we have to find 1 percent of 35, and then we will multiply it by 40. So: 35/100 = 0.35

0.35 (40) = 14

35 - 14 = 21

So, the discounted price is now $21.

Answer 2

$21 is the correct answer
