A computer that normally sells for $925 is on 15% discount sale. Assuming there is no sales tax, how much do you have to pay for it?

Answer:

$786.25

Explanation:

Since there is a 15% discount, you are only paying for 85% of the original price

Convert 85% to a decimal

85/100=0.85

Multiply the cost by the percent as a decimal

0.85*925=786.25

So, you will have to pay $786.25

Hope this helps! :)
