Question

An item on sale costs 80% of the original price. The original price was $73.

Answer 1

Answer:

$58.40

Step-by-step explanation:

Really simple stuff here once you know how percentages work.

10% of 73.00 is 7.30, which means that if we do:

7.30 * 2 that means we have 20%

So, 7.30 * 2 = 14.60

73.00 - 14.60 = $58.40

We can check this by doing

7.30 * 8 = $58.40
