I found a pair of Vans at the mall last week. They were normally priced at $45, but were on sale for 60% of the original price. How much do they cost now?

Answer:

$27.

Explanation:

To find the percentage of something, simply multiply the value by the percentage ÷ 100:

60% = 60 ÷ 100 = 0.6

0.6 * 45 = 27

So they now cost $27.

Hope this helps!
