Question

A $299 pair of shoes discounted by 30%

Answer 1

211.5

Explanation:

25% of 350 = 25% x 350

= 25/100 x 350/1

Simplify the fraction, when it can be

= 25/1 x 7/1 = 175/2

Then Divide 175 by 2

175/2 = $87.50

Discount = $87.50

Original price - discount

Original price = 299

so

299 - 87.50 = 211.5

Answer = 211.5
