Amy wants to buy a pair of jeans that cost $65. Today the store is offering a straight discount of 25%. Calculate her savings and cost after the discount.​

Respuesta :

Answer: she will save $16.25

Step-by-step explanation:

If you do 65 divided by 4 you will see how much 25 percent of 65
Original price = 100%
Discount = 25%
New Price = 75%

$65/100 = 1% (65 cents)
Multiply by 75
65 Cents X 75 = 75% ($48.75)

So, New Price = $48.75.
Savings = $75-$48.75 = $26.25.

New Price = $48.75
Savings = $26.25

I hope this helps.
