If a discount of 15/2%is allowed on a book that costs 800naira what Will be the sale price

1 answer

To determine the sale price, we need to multiply the original price of the book by the discount (15/2%) and subtract from the original price.

15/2% is equivalent to 15/2 / 100 = 0.15 * (1/2) / 100 = 0.0015

Sale price = 800 - (800 * 0.0015)
Sale price = 800 - 1.20
Sale price = 798.80 naira

Therefore, the sale price of the book with a discount of 15/2% (0.0015) is 798.80 naira.
