Question

the spanish club sold hot pretzels as a fund-raiser. the pretzels normally sold for 1.50, but near the end of the sale they wanted to sell as many as possible so they reduced the price by 30%. what was the new price for a hot pretzel

Answer 1

Find what 30% of the normal price is to find the discount, then subtract the discount from the normal price to get the reduced price. So:
30% of 1.50 equals 1.50*.30( change the percentage into a decimal ), which equals to 0.45. This is the discount.
Now to get the reduced price: 1.50 (normal price) - 0.45 (discount) equals $1.05 :)
Hope this helped~
