Question

An item is regularly priced at $95. Karen bought it on sale for 20% off the regular price. How much did Karen pay?

Answer 1

Karen paid $
`76` for the item.

Explanation:

To find out the answer, you need to figure out how much the discount is.

`(20)/(100)`
`x`
`95`
`= 19`

We know that the discount is $
`19` off the original price.

After you figure out how much the discount is, you would subtract it from the original price.

`95 - 19 = 76`
