Answer 1

The discount price is $27.50

The sale price of item is $82.49

Explanation:

Regular price of item = $109.99

Discount = 25%

We need to find discount and the sale price to the nearest cent.

Finding Discount Price

First we need to find 25% of 109.99 which is the discount price

`25\% \ of \ 109.99\\=(25)/(100)*109.99\\=27.50`

The discount price is $27.50

Now, finding Sale price

Sale Price= Regular Price - Discount Price

Sale Price= 109.99 - 27.50

Sale Price = 82.49

The sale price of item is $82.49
