If you want to buy an item in a store that costs $32.50 and is on sale for 30% off, then how much would the item actually cost you after the discount? Round to the nearest cent.​

Answer:

22.80

Explanation:

100% - 30% = 70% that you'll be paying

70% =
(70)/(100) = 0.7

0.7 * 32.50 = 22.75

Round to nearest cent: 22.8
