Ok so the original price is $30.75 and it’s on sale for 20%. To find the discount you multiply 30.75 by .20 and get 6.15. So the discount is $6.15, and the new price of it is $24.60. Hope this helps!

Answer:

$24.60

Explanation:

First, you need to find 20% of $30.75.

To do this, we need to divide $30.75 by 5.

20% og $30.75 is $6.15.

$30.75 - $6.15 = $24.60

I hope that this helps! :)
