Question

A sewing machine is at a 20% off sale. The original price was $340. How much does the sewing machine cost at a 20% off sale?

Answer 1

Answer:

272$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is at a sale of 20% off that means that we will have to subtract 100% from 20% which is 80%

Now to find the exact value, we will have to multiply 80%, or 0.80 with 340

0.80*340= 272$

Therefore our answer is 272$

Answer 2

Answer:  272 dollars

Reasoning:

A discount of 20% means that you still pay 80% of the remaining value (note how 20% + 80% = 100%)

80% = 80/100 = 0.80

80% of 340 = 0.80*340 = 272
