anonymous · Answer

45*.8 =36
or 45 *.20=9
45-9=36

anonymous · Answer

sale price = 45.00 - (45.00/100)*20

sale price = 45.00-9

sale price = 36

- for your understanding  20% from 45 you can calculate from this if you write it hence :

from 100 ..... 20
 from 45 ...... x
-------------
                 (45)(20)        900
           x= ------- = ---- = 9
                      100           100

- hence you get the price with the sale for 20% off equal 45-9=36  

- hope that you have understood it hence clearly
