Question

The original price of a pair of shoes at DSW is $29.99. On Black Friday there is a mark down of 10%. What is the sale amount of the pair of shoes?

Answer 1

The sale amount of the pair of shoes will be: $27

Explanation:

The original price = $29.99

Mark down = 10%

Mark down amount = 10% × 29.99

= 0.1 × 29.99

= $2.99

Thus, the sale price = Original price - Mark down amount

= $29.99 - $2.99

= $27

Therefore, the sale amount of the pair of shoes will be: $27
