Question

Munari bought a computer for 35% off the list price. If the list price is $3,500, how much did he spend?

Answer 1

~Turn the discount into a decimal.

35% = 0.35

~Multiply

3,500 * 0.35 = $1,225 (discount)

~Subtract

3,500 - 1,225 = $2,275 is the amount Munari spent.

Best of Luck!

Answer 2

2275

Explanation:

list price * discount rate = discount

3500 *35% = discount

Change to decimal form

3500 *.35 =1225

list price - discount = sale price

3500-1225 =2275

He will spend 2275
