Question

A laptop costs $550.

You get a coupon in the mail for 30% off.

If you use the coupon, what is the sale price for the laptop?

Answer 1

$385.00

Explanation:

Original Price - Discount = Sale price

Since the discount is 30%, we would multiply 0.30(550) to get the amount of the discount.

0.30(550) = 165

550 - 165 = $385

Answer 2

The sale price of the laptop is $414 after the use of the coupon.
