During a sale a shop allows a 20% discount on all purchases. What will a customer pay for a dress which cost $3,000?

3000*.20=600
$3000-600=$2,400


You get .20 by taking 20% and moving the decimal 2 places to the left. Then you multiply the amount of money by the decimal percentage. Then subtract that amount from $3000 because it is a discount. Then you get the answer of $2,400.
