Answer:

$31.50

Explanation:

So first thing, it's necessary to figure out what 30% of 45 is.

You can set this up as an algebraic expression or your can multiple 45 by 3/10 to find out what that 30% is.

The algebraic expression would be 30% of 45 is x.

Using one of these two options; we would discover that 30% of 45 is 13.5.

However, this is not the answer, yet.

The question is looking for the price of the dress after the 13.5 is taken away.

Therefore, you would subtract.

45 - 13.5 = 31.5

Sooooo... your answer is "The sale price of the dress is $31.50."
