Part 1
A ​$320 suit is marked down by ​%30. Find the sale price.

1 answer

To find the sale price, you need to find the amount of the discount first.

To do this, multiply the original price of the suit by the discount rate:

$320 x 30% = $320 x 0.30 = $96

The discount amount is $96.

To find the sale price, subtract the discount amount from the original price:

$320 - $96 = $224

The sale price of the suit is $224.
