Question

How do i find the sale price?if original price is $77.00markdown is 32%

Answer 1

The markdown price can be calculated as,

`\begin{gathered} \text{Markdown price}=\frac{Markdown\text{ Percent}}{100}* Original\text{ price} \\ \text{Markdown price}=(32)/(100)*77 \\ \text{Markdown price}=24.64 \end{gathered}`

Now, the sale price is,

`\begin{gathered} \text{Sale price=Original price -markdown price} \\ \text{Sale price=}=77-24.64 \\ \text{Sale price=}52.36 \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the sale price is $52.36.
