Question

A hat that costs $25 is on sale for 30% off. What is the sale price?



$5

$17.50

$24.25

$32.50

Answer 1

25 - 30% of 25 = sale price

Answer 2

If you use a little algebra, you can also take the 30% out of 100%. See:

(100% * $25) - (30% * $25) = sale price
(100% - 30%) * $25 = sale price

That is factoring out the $25. This simplifies to:

70% * $25 = sale price
