Question

A Local clothing shop is marking down all of its summer clothes by 75%. Keesha would like to purchase a swimsuit that is originally priced at $80. What is the markdown price of the swimsuit?

Answer 1

Markdown price is $60.

Explanation:

The discount offered on the cloths by the clothing shop = 75%

Since we know that the markdown price is the amount by which the original price is decreased. So, the markdown price can be calculated by multiplying the original price with a discount rate. Here, below is the calculation.

Markdown price = $80 × 75% = $60
