Answer: 67.90 dollars

========================================

Work Shown:

30% = 30/100 = 0.30

Take 30% of 97 to get 0.30*97 = 29.10

So Ingrit saves $29.10

The sale price is 97.00 - 29.10 = 67.90

-----------

Here's another way to get the answer:

The discount is 30% which means she saves 30% and pays the remaining 70% (since 30% + 70% = 100%)

70% = 70/100 = 0.70

Take 70% of the original price and you'll get the sale price

0.70*97 = 67.90
