Question

Lea buys a sweater that is 25% off. The original cost of the seater is 50.00. How much money does Lea save? What is the new cost of the sweater after the discount?

Answer 1

The answer is as follows:
$50 x 0.25 = $12.5 (This is how much Lea saves)
$50 - $12.50 = $37.50 (Price after discount)
Therefore, we can conclude that the amount taken off is $12.50 and the discounted price is $37.50.
