Question

A car was sold at a 12% discount, which amounts to $1800. How much would the car sell for after the discount?

Answer 1

13200

Explanation:

12% - 1800

100% - x

X = (1800x100)/12 = 15000 - original price

15000-1800 = original price - discount = 13200 price after discount

Answer 2

1584$

Explanation:

Original price is 1800$ (100%)

Discount percent: 12%

=> The price after discount is 100 - 12 = 88% of original price

=> The price after discount is 1800 x 88% = 1800 x 88/100 = 1584$
