Question

A item is regularly priced at $73 . Manuel bought it at a discount of 45% off the regular price.

Answer 1

$40.15

Explanation:

73 × .55 = 40.15

you do .55 not .45 because Manuel is only getting the item for 45% off, but he is still paying 55% for the jacket.

Answer 2

45 x 73/

100 = 32.85

The answer is 32.85. 32.85 is the price of the item bought after the discount of 45%.
