Question

A pair of running shoes were originally priced at $120. They areon sale for 10% off the original price. What is the sale price?

Answer 1

We are told that the price of a pair of shoes is $120. If they are sold at a 10% off then we can calculate the final price by subtracting the 10% of the price from the original price, that is:

`P=120-120*(10)/(100)`

Solving the percentage we get:

`P=120-12`

Solving the operations:

`P=108`

Therefore, the sale price is $108.
