of the shoes is $55, what will the discounted price be?

A. $38.50
B. $53.35
c. $25.00

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

70% of 55 is 38.5

or u could do 30% of 55 = 16.5

55 - 16.5 = 38.5

Explanation:

Discount = 30% of 55

`=(30)/(100)*55\\\\=0.3*55\\\\=16.5\\\\`

= $ 16.50

Price after discount = 55 - 16.50 = $38.50
