Question

A DVD player that normally cost $160 is on sale for 70% of its normal price.What is the sale price of the DVD player.

Answer 1

The sale price is 112 dollars.

Answer 2

Take 160 and multiply by .7 that is the discount. Subtract that from 160 and thats the sale price

Answer 3

tdabboud, no that's wrong. The sale price is 70% OF its normal price,
not 70% OFF it's normal price.

Answer 4

I need to slow down and read thats 2 now, so it would be 30% discount so multiply by .30 then not .7

Answer 5

Or just multiply by .7 and that is the sale price. No subtracting required.

Answer 6

yeah true
