To find the sale price of the suit after a 30% markdown, follow these steps:
1. Calculate the amount of the markdown:
\[
\text{Markdown} = \text{Original Price} \times \text{Markdown Percentage} = 260 \times 0.30 = 78
\]
2. Subtract the markdown from the original price to find the sale price:
\[
\text{Sale Price} = \text{Original Price} - \text{Markdown} = 260 - 78 = 182
\]
Therefore, the sale price of the suit is **$182**.
