The sale price of something is how much we will spend after the discount is taken. So, the discount is 20%.

We must find what 20% of $25 is. We know

Now, we multiply.

So, the discount is $5. We need to determine how much we are going to pay. To do that, we subtract the discount from the original cost.

The sale price of the shirt is $20.

County A: Multiply the price by the sales tax to find out how much money the sales tax will add. Remember to convert percent to decimal!

$75 * 0.0725 = $5.4375

Add the original price and the sales tax.

$75 + $5.4375 = $80.4375

County B: Multiply the price by the sales tax to find out how much money the sales tax will add. Remember to convert percent to decimal!

$70 * 0.08 = $5.6

Add the original price and the sales tax.

$70 + $5.6 = $75.6

Then take the difference.

80.4375 – 75.6 = 4.8375

Round to the nearest hundredth: $4.84

To solve this, you can set up an equation: . Translated into words, the new price equals the original price minus the discount. Isolate for and you get .

The negative sign signals that the percentage is a mark down. Convert the fraction into a percentage and you get .

Set up the equation to find the final sales price.

Simplify the equation.

The answer is:

Let us say for the sake of simplicity that the hat costs $100.00 before discount. Then a 30% discount means that the discount is 30% of $100, or $30, and the new price is $70. Then the employee gets a discount of 15% of the $70, or ; she will pay .

She ends up paying 59.5% of the original purchase price; that is, she gets a net discount of 40.5%.

To find the sale price of an item, we will first find the amount of discount and subtract that from the original price. In other words,

We know the pair of shoes originally cost $45. We also know the discount is equal to 14% of $45. To get this value, we will multiply 14% by $45.

Now, we can substitute into the formula.

Therefore, the sale price of the shoes is $38.70.

If the computer is discounted by 15%, then it must be priced at 85% of its original price (100% minus the 15% discount). To determine what 85% of $800, multiply 0.85 by 800:

for a discounted price of $680.
