The original price of a pair of shoes is $42. The sale price is 20% off the original price. What is the amount off the original price?
You would have to take 42 and multiply it by .20 and get tht number and add it back to 42
The original price of a pair of shoes is $42 and the sale price is 20% off the original price ( that mean we have to pay 100% - 20% = 80% )
⇒ We have to pay: $42 ÷ 100% × 80% = $33.6
⇒ We don't have to pay: $42 - $33.6 = $8.4
Ok done. Thank to me :>
