Answer:

$63.20

Explanation:

first we have to find how much the sweater is marked down in money. we do this by converting the percentage to decimal form and multiply by the original price.

79•0.2= 15.8

so the sweater is marked down $15.80. now we subtract that markdown from the original price to find the new price

$79-$15.8= $63.20

hope this helps chu <3
