Answer:
Final price would be $35.19.... discount is $8.80.
Soulution:
Replacing the given values in formula (a) we have:
Amount Saved = Original Price x Discount in Percent / 100. So,
Amount Saved = 43.99 x 20 / 100
Amount Saved = 879.8 / 100
Amount Saved = $8.8 (answer).
In other words, a 20% discount for a item with original price of $43.99 is equal to $8.798 (Amount Saved)
