Question

The regular price of a pair of jeans is $52. The jeans are on sale for 25% off. What is the amount of the discount?

Answer 1

B. 13.00$

Explanation:

discount/ 52$ 25/100

discount × 100/ 100 ≈ 52 × 25/ 100

so.. 52 × 25 ≈ 1300

then, 1300 ÷ 100 ≈ 13

≈ 13.00

Answer 2

$52 initial cost

25% off initial cost

25% = 1/4

52 / 4 = 13

$13 off is the discount.
