Answer:

$91

Explanation:

Replacing the given values in formula (a) we have:

Amount Saved = Original Price x Discount in Percent / 100. So,

Amount Saved = 140 x 35 / 100

Amount Saved = 4900 / 100

Amount Saved = $49 (answer).

In other words, a 35% discount for a item with original price of $140 is equal to $49

Answer:

$91

Explanation:

• To answer this, we can first calculate how much was discounted by calculating the value of 35% of $140:

⇒ 35% of $140


(35)/(100) * \$ \space\ 140

$49

Now that we we know that $49 was discounted from the original price, we can find the final sale price simply by subtracting $49 from the original price:

final sale price = $140 - $49

= $91
