(a) The amount of money you will save can be calculated by multiplying the original price of the sweater ($30) by the discount percentage (25% or 0.25):
Saving = $30 * 0.25 = $7.50
(b) The amount of money you will spend on the sweater after applying the discount can be calculated by subtracting the saving from the original price:
Amount spent = $30 - $7.50 = $22.50
a store has a sale for 25% off. You decide to buy a sweater that usually cost $30.
