Question

A 270 suit is marked down by 30%. Find the sales price

Answer 1

270·0.3=81
270-81=189
the sales price of the marked down suit is $189

Answer 2

$189 should be your answer

Explanation:

Note that: 30% = 30/100 = 0.3

Multiply 0.3 with 270

270 x 0.3 = 81

The mark down is $81. Subtract from the total

270 - 81 = 189

$189 is the sales price
