A gas stove that normally sells for $749 is on sale at a 30% discount. What is the sale price of the gas stove?

Answer 1

To find the sale price of the gas stove after a 30% discount, follow these steps:

1. Calculate the amount of the discount: \[ \text{Discount} = \text{Original Price} \times \text{Discount Rate} = 749 \times 0.30 = 224.70 \]

2. Subtract the discount from the original price to find the sale price: \[ \text{Sale Price} = \text{Original Price} - \text{Discount} = 749 - 224.70 = 524.30 \]

Thus, the sale price of the gas stove is $524.30.
