Question

The original price of a pair of jeans is $32. The sale price is 15%off the original price. What is the amount off the original price?

Answer 1

4.8

Explanation:

Multiply the Price Percentage by the Original Price

Multiply the original price and the percentage that represents the sale price; the result is the sale price of the blazer in dollars: $90 × 0.7 = $63. So if the blazer is on sale for 30 percent off, you'll pay the remaining 70 percent of the price, which is $63.
