A video game that usually costs $30.65 is marked down 60%. Kelvin determined that the new price of the game would be $18.39. Look at Kelvin’s work and find his error. ($30.65)(0.60) = $18.39

times it to find the error

Aqual:

think about what the cost would be: the 60% taken away, or what's left after the 60%

Aqual:

Kelvin said that 60% of $30.65 is equal to $18.39

Aqual:

He is not wrong, but that is not the price after the markdown.
