Question

9) A sweater costs $60 and is sold at a 20% discount. The store

charged Aria $12. Is this correct? How do you know? Be clear and
complete.

Answer 1

No

Explanation:

I know because if you take 20 percent of 60 you get 12.

60 × .20 = 12

But, that doesn't mean the sweater is $12, you only calculated the discount.

next, take 60-12= $48

She should've been charged $48
