Answer 1

first thing about percentage problems think either decimals or factions.

Decimals if your teacher is nice and lets you use a calculator.

.15*329=$49.35 will be taken off the original price

$329.00-$49.35=$279.65 new discounted price

Now for the fractional version if you like factions:

x/$329.00 = 15/100

Let's cross and multiply then divide

$329.00*15=4935
4935/100=x
x=49.35

look it just like the decimals then you would subtract

$320.00-$49.35=$279.65 discounted price

Answer 2
