Question

A bag of apples that cost $4.75 is on sale for 30%.
What is the sale cost?

Answer 1

$3.33

Explanation:

$4.75 by 30 then divide it by one hundred. So, the discount is equal to $1.43. To calculate the sales price, simply deduct the discount of $1.43 from the original price $4.75 then get $3.33 as the sales price.

Answer 2

$3.32

Explanation:

You take 30% of 4.75. You multiply 0.30 times 4.75. Then you subract that from 4.75. Boom.
