Question

A comic book originally cost $12.00. Tim bought it at 60% off. How much was deducted from the original price?

Answer 1

Answer: $7.2

Explanation:

First, you must find 60% of $12 which is $7.2. Then, you must subtract $12 - $7.2 which is $4.8. $12 - $4.8 is 7.2.

Answer 2

$7.20 was taken off the price.

The price would now be $4.80
