Answer:
$280 - $112.00 = $168.00 and 0.600 x $280 = $168.00.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, convert the 40% to a real mathematical number. For percents, this is always done by dividing the 40% by 100%, or 40% / 100% = 0.400.
Second, find out what 40% of $280 is. This is the amount of the sale discount. This is always found by mulitplying 0.400 by the item's cost $280, like this:
0.400 x $280 = $112.00.
So for this sale, you'll save $112.00 on this item.
This means, the cost of the item to you is Â
$280 - $112.00 = $168.00.
Or you can think about it this way. The item is 40% off. This means you'll pay 60.000% of the total cost (100% - 40% = 60.000%).
Now what's 60.000% of the total cost? Â
0.600 x $280 = $168.00.
Answer:
1. a.) 280 - (\frac{40}{100}[/tex] ×[tex]\frac{x}{280}[/tex])
b.) 280 × .60
2. a.) 168=168
Step-by-step explanation:
a.) cross multiply, then you will get 112, then subtract 112 from 280 to get 168.
b.) multiply to get 168
