Original price: $45.00; Markdown: 22%

OpenStudy (study312):

turn 22% into a decimal, 0.22 them times 0.22 by 45 so 0.22 • 45 then subtract the result from 45

OpenStudy (glitterychan):

Find 22% of 45 and then subtract it from the original price. :)

OpenStudy (study312):

then*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But it'll be negative!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it supposed to be?

OpenStudy (glitterychan):

No. 22% of $45 is $9.9. Now subtract that from your original price!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 45.00 minus 9.9?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or the other way around?

OpenStudy (glitterychan):

45 minus 9.9. Then just convert it into dollars :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh, ok. Thank you so much!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

^^

OpenStudy (glitterychan):

Yw! What did you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got, $35.10!

OpenStudy (glitterychan):

That would be correct :)
