Question

Kendra is buying an outfit that is on sale for 20% off. The original price of the outfit is $109.

What is the sale price?



$130.80

$87.20

$78.20

$21.80

Answer 1

100 - .20(100) = your sale price

what you are doing is taking the original amount and subtract 20% of the original amount.
turn your percent into a decimal by dividing it by 100. Then multiply that by the original amount. That is your discount. Subtract that from the original amount and you will get your sale price.
