Question

Simon bought a $48 table on sale at 30% off. Select from the drop-down menu to correctly complete the sentence. The best estimate for the discount can be found using the expression.

Answer 1

Simon bought a table for $33.60 because he got a 30% discount.

48 x 0.30 = 14.4
48 - 14.4 = 33.6
33.6 = $33.60
$33.60 is the answer

Answer 2

I would think that the expression would be 48-48(0.30), but I see no drop-down menu. Hope this helps!
