A skateboard is on sale for 60% off the regular $80 price. What is the sale price?

Solution:

Given, a skateboard is on sale for 60% off

This implies that the cost of the skateboard is (100 - 60)% = 40% of the original cost.

Given, original cost = $80.

Now, sale price = 40% of the original price

To find the sale price we have to multiply the original cost with the off

Sale price = 40(80) / 100

So we get

= 3200 / 100

= 32

Therefore, the sale price is $32.

A skateboard is on sale for 60% off the regular $80 price. What is the sale price?

Summary:

A skateboard is on sale for 60% off the regular $80 price. The sale price is $32.
