Question

Today, everything at a store is on sale. The store offers a 20% discount.If the regular price of an item is dollars, what is the discount price in dollars

Answer 1

Answer: A original price of $10 with a 20% discount, would result in a $8 discounted price.

Step-by-step explanation: If the regular price in dollars was $10, and was discounted by 20%, the new price would be $8.

To find the 20% discount, convert 20% to a decimal, which is 0.20.

Now, multiply 10 x 0.20, which equals 2.

Now, subtract 2 from 10, which is 8.

So, the discount price in dollars would be $8.
