Answer:

The total is $105

Explanation:

To get a percentage of a number first convert the percentage to a regular number with a decimal

30.0% would be 0.3 because you move the decimal two spots to the left

you then multiple your new number 0.3 with the original price to get 45

because it is a discount it means we will reduce the price or subtract from it

150 - 45 = 105

I hope this helps
