Question

If a new soccer ball is labeled $45, what would the new price be if the sign above it says "63% off"?

Answer 1

New price of the ball after discount = $16.65

Explanation:

Selling price of the soccer ball = $45

Discount labeled on the ball = 63% off

Therefore, selling price after the discount = Original selling price - %discount

= $45 - (63% of $45)

= $45 - $28.35

= $16.65

New price of the ball after discount = $16.65
