You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The sweater usually costs $30.
\n" ); document.write( "You're getting 25% off.
\n" ); document.write( "To find out your savings, multiply the original price by the discount.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "30 * 0.25 = 7.5
\n" ); document.write( "If you're saving $7.50 on a purchase of $30.00, how much will it cost you?
\n" ); document.write( "$30.00 - $7.50 = $22.50
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
