Answer:

$22.40

Explanation:

For this question you have to use decimal multipliers to work out the sale price of the cola given the information that in a grocery store, a $32 case of soda is labelled get a 30 % discount so to use decimal multipliers we have minus 100 by 30 and then divide by 100

→ We have to minus 100 by 30

⇒ 70

→ And then divide by 100

⇒ 70 ÷ 100 = 0.7

0.7 is the decimal multiplier for this question so we multiply it by the case of soda price with is $32 so

32 × 0.7 = 22.4

The sale price of the case of soda is $22.40 considering a 30% discount on a $32 case of soda
