Question

Sophia went out to eat dinner, and the meal cost $40.00. If Sophia received a 35% discount, what was the total value of the discount?

Answer 1

the discount was $14 and it now costs $26 i dont know what you mean by total value of discount so i'll put both

Explanation:

40 x 35% = 14 because 35% = 0.35

40 - 14 = 26 is what you have after the discount but first answer prolly correct

Answer 2

$14.00

Explanation:

Given the following question:

35% of 40

To find the answer we use the formula to calculate percentages to find the value of the discount.


`(p* n)/(100)`

`(35*40)/(100)`

`35*40=1400`

`1400/100=14`

`=14.00`

The total value of a 35% discount for a 40-dollar meal is "$14.00."

Hope this helps.
