Question

Sra bought a pair of shoes that were on sale for 30 percent off. If the oringal prices was 29 what is the sale price on the shoes?

Answer 1

$20.30

Explanation:

Original price = 100% of the price

100% = $29

1% = 29 ÷ 100 = 0.29

Sale percentage = 30%

30% = 0.29 x 30 = 8.70

Since they are asking for the sale price of the shoes, it means the price of the shoes after the discount of the sale percentage.

29 - 8.70 = 20.3
