Question

16. A sweater is marked 30% off during an

end of the season sale. If the sweater was
originally $56.00, how much was the sweater
on sale for?

Answer 1

Sweater costs 56.00

To calculate the discounted price of the sweater

56 * (30/100) = 16.8

We used (30/100) to find out the 30 percent of the sweater which will be on discount/reduced.

56-16.8=39.2 is the discounted price

Then we subtract the amount of discount from the original price of sweater to find out the discounted price.
