You would save 40$, I know someone already answered it, but yeah.

I think that for me an easy way to figure it out is by dividing the % by the original price and you will find the amount you save. (Hope I help)

Answer:

$40 in savings

Explanation:

Turn the percentage into a decimal.

10% -> 0.1

Multiply.

400 * 0.1 = 40

Subtract.

400 - 40 = 360

Best of Luck!
