Solution:

Note that:

  • 35.99 - (35.99 x 60/100) = Sale Price

Simplify the equation to obtain the sale price.

  • 35.99 - (35.99 x 60/100) = Sale Price
  • => 35.99 - (35.99 x 6/10) = Sale Price
  • => 35.99 - (107.97/5) = Sale Price
  • => 35.990 - 21.594 = Sale Price
  • => $14.396 = Sale Price
  • => $14.40 (Rounded)
