Question

During a sale, a shop allows 20% discount off the marked price of clothing. What will a customer pay for a dress with a marked price of $30? * 1 point

Answer 1

They will pay 24 dollars

Answer 2

$24

Explanation:

Let the full price of $30 be 100%.

If the discount allowed is 20%, then the percentage of the original price that a customer will pay is:

`P=100\%-20\%\\P=80\%`

80% of a marked price of $30 is:

`80\%*\$30\\\$24`

A customer will pay $24.
