Question

A computer company offers a special discount to college students of 15% off. Find the discounted price of a computer that costs $1265

Answer 1

$1075.25

Explanation:

The original price of the computer ($1265) would be 100% of the original price.

100% - 15% = 85%

85% = 0.85 because we convert % to decimals by dividing them by 100

0.85*1265 = 1075.25
