Question

A store sells sandals for 25% off the regular price. The regular price of the sandals is $32.50. what is the sale?

Answer 1

$24.375

Explanation:

Regular price of sandals = $32.50

Store sells sandals for 25% of the regular price.

Hence selling price =(100-25)% of the regular price.

In other words, selling price = 75% of regular price

= 75% of $32.50

=
`\[(75)/(100)*32.50\]`

=
`\[24.375\]`

Hence the sale price of the sandals is $24.375

This is $8.125 less than the regular price of the sandal.
