Question

(Anna went to buy herself a new bag. The cost was $60. The bag had a 15% sale that day. How much money did she save?)

Answer 1

$9

Explanation:

Since Anna is saving 15%, she is paying 85%. So you find 85% of $60 by multiplying 60*0.85=51.

Anna pays $51 for the bag. But to find out how much she saved, you do 60-51=9.
