Question

In a department store, a $50 dress is marked, "Save 25%." What is the discount? What is the sale price of the dress?

Answer 1

$37.50

Explanation:

100-25=75

75÷100=0.75

that is your multiplier

50×0.75= 37.50

hope this helped :)

Answer 2

Change 25% to .25. Multiply .25 by 50 to get 12.5. Subtract 12.5 from 50 to get $37.50
