Question

A camping store is having a sale all tents are 20% off. Bella wants to know the sale price of a tent that is regularly $140.

Answer 1

$112

Explanation:

20% off means 100-20 = 80% to be paid

80% of 140

80/100 × 140

112

Answer 2

$112

Explanation:

First find the discount

Take the original price times the discount percent

discount = original price * percent

= 140* 20%

=140 *.20

=28

Then to find the sale price, take the original price and subtract the discount

sale price = 140-28

=112
