Since it's Wednesday, Buy for Less gives a 5% discount for purchases. The items in Rhonda's cart total $53.75. She needs to know the cost of the items with the discount. So, she multiplies 5% times $53.75 and subtracts the amount from $53.75. Which expression would give Rhonda the same result in one step?

\(.05 \times 53.75 = 2.675 - 53.75 = 51.075\)

Solution:

Total Discount that is provided on Wednesday=5%

Cost of all the Items in Rhonda's Cart = $ 53.75

Amount of money that Rhonda have to pay after discount

                    = Total cost of items × [1 -  @@MATH_TOKEN_0@@]→→→→→Expression

                    = $53.75 × [1 -  \(\frac{5}{100}\)]

                    = $ 53.75 - $ 53.75 × \(\frac{5}{100}\)

                   = $ 53.75 -  $2.6875

                   = $  51.0625→→→Result
