Question

A pair of jeans cost $34.00. You have a coupon for 30% off the regular price. What is the sale price of the jeans after you use your coupon?

Answer 1

$23.80

Explanation:

The price would be 30% LESS than the original tag price of $34.

First we need to find 30% of 34 and then subtract it from original price (34).

To get percentage, we divide 30 by 100 and then multiply by 34:

30% = 30/100 = 0.3

0.3 * 34 = 10.2

Now we subtract:

$34 - $10.20 = $23.8

The sale price = $23.80
