Question

The grocery store is having a sale on cereal. A box of cereal normally costs $4.56. Today, it is on sale for 25% off. If you buy 4 boxes of cereal how much money will you have to pay at the register? There is no sales tax on the cereal.

Answer 1

You will have to pay 13.68 dollars.

Explanation:

If you take 4.56 you can see that it is automatically 1 dollar because 25% of 4 is 1. After that you're left with 56 cents, so whats 25% of that? Your answer is 14 cents. If you multiply 14 by it comes up to 56.

So since each box is 3.42, multiply that by 4.
