Question

A new coat is regularly priced at $50. It is on sale with a discount of 10%. Approximately how much would be saved by purchasing the coat at the sale price?.

Answer 1

Answer:

$5 dollars.

Explanation:

Given the following question:

10% of 50

In order to find how much, we would save by purchasing the coat, we calculate the percentage.

$\frac{50\times10}{100} =50\times10=500\div100=5$
$=5$

We would save "five dollars" by purchasing the coat at the sale price.

Hope this helps.
