Question

A TV that was selling for $222 was discounted 75%. What is the sale price of that TV?

Answer 1

$55.50

Explanation:

The rate is usually given as a percent.

Step 1: Multiply the rate by the original price.

`75\% * 222 = 166.5`

Step 2: Subtract the discount from the original price.

`222 - 166.5 = 55.5`

Therefore, the sale price of that TV is $55.50

Answer 2

The answer would be $55.50
