What is the sale price of a cell phone that is on sale for 15% off if the regular price is $75?
Solution:
By the definition of the discount, the formula is:
Discount = Listed Price - Selling Price
From this formula we can also find out the listed price and the selling price by using the following formulas:
Selling Price = Listed Price − Discount
Given that:
Regular Price of the cellphone = $ 75
Discount that is given is 15%.
The sales price is as calculated below.
Sales price = (1- 0.15) (75)
= 0.85(75)
= $ 63.75
Hence, the required price is $ 63.75.
What is the sale price of a cell phone that is on sale for 15% off if the regular price is $75?
Summary:
