Question

A Tv is on sale for 25% off its original price if the tv cost $2240 how much will the tv cost after the discount? Round to the nearest cent if necessary

Answer 1

`\text{Hello there!}\\\\\text{We know the TV is on sale for 25\%}\\\\\text{We also know the original price is \$2240}\\\\\text{Find how much you can get discounted by multiply 2240 by 0.25}\\\\2240\cdot0.25=560\\\\\text{Subtract 560 from original price}\\\\2240-560=1680\\\\\boxed{\text{\$1680 would be your answer}}\\\\\text{That is one big price on that TV, hopefully it's at least 65 inches, haha.}`

Answer 2

The discounted price would thus be 75% of the original price given the discount

75% x 2240 = 75/100 x 2240= 1680
