Question

A bracelet costs $39.59. It is marked down 25%. What is the final price of the bracelet after it is marked down?

$9.90
$29.69
$35.49
$49.49

Answer 1

$9.90 is correct. Because if you take 39 dollars and 59 cents and times it by 25 percent. That's the answer you get.

Answer 2

The final price would be 29.69

To find this answer you could simply take the $39.59 and divide it by 4. You would then get 9.8975, that is 1/4 of $39.59 AKA 25%. So then you take your 39.59 and subtract the 25%.

39.59-9.8975=29.69

I hoped this helped, k :)
