Question

Leah went shopping for a new phone because of a sale. The store was offering a 30% discount. If the price on the tag was $23, what would be the price after the discount but before tax, to the nearest dollar and cent?

Answer 1

Discounted price= $16.1

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Discount rate (d)= 30%

Regular price= $23

To calculate the discounted price, we need to use the following formula:

Discounted price= regular price*(1 - discount rate)

Discounted price= 23*0.7

Discounted price= $16.1
