Answer:

53.12

Explanation:

You can do it 2 ways

1st way

83 multiplied by .33

83 is the amount and .33 is the percent

Now you have the mark downed price, so you subtract that from the original of 83

2nd way

subtract 33 from 100 because the price is 33% off

now multiply 83 by 0.64 because the .64 represents 64%
