Cost of a notebook = $19

Cost of a notebook after the school season :-

= 24% lesser than it's usual price

Let us first see how much it's 24% is :-

$\color{olive} = \color{black}(24)/(100) * 19$

$\color{olive} = \color{black} (24 * 19)/(100)$

$\color{olive} = \: \color{black}(456)/(100)$

$\color{hotpink} = 4.56$

Cost of the notebook now :-

= 19 - 4.56

$\color{hotpink} = 14.44$

Therefore the cost of the notebook now is $14.44 .
