a.
$45.94
c.
$5.99
b.
$24.95
d.
$33.96

Answer 1

same thing as the other question, now you multiply
39.95 x .85

Answer 2

how you have .85?

Answer 3

the reason why you multiply by 0.85, is because the discount if 15%, so you pay 85% which is the difference, so 85% = .85

Answer 4

or you could multiply 39.95 x .15, that will give you the discount, but then you have to subtract the discount for the 39.95, is one extra step if you do it that way
