HELP! FOR 100 POINTS


In a sale, all prices are reduced by 22%. A pair of trainers normally cost £80. What is the sale price of the pair of trainers?

Respuesta :

Answer:  $62.40

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price $80

22% of 80%

.22(80) = 17.60   >This is the discount

Sale price = Original price -  discount

Sale price = 80 - 17.60

Sale price = $62.40

Answer:

[tex]\Huge \boxed{\text{\$62.40}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In the sale, the prices decrease by 22%. This means that the sale price is 78% of the original price.

[tex]\Large \text{Sale price = (100 - 22)\% of old price}\\\text{Sale price = 78\% of \$80}\\\text{Sale price = 0.78 $\times$ 80}\\\text{Sale price = \$62.40}[/tex]
