Question

A new car sells for $30,000. At the end of the season, the dealership advertises 10% off the retail price of the car. What is the sale price in dollars for this car? (Enter an exact number.)

Answer 1

27,000

Explanation:

10% of 30,000 is 3000 so 30000-3000=27,000

Answer 2

10% off means it will sell for 90% of the original price ( 100%- 10% = 905)

Multiply the price by 90%:

30,000 x 0.90 = 27000

It will sell for $27,000
