regular price is 204.13
\n" ); document.write( "33 + 1/3 = 33.33333333...%
\n" ); document.write( "divide that by 100 to get the rate of .3333333333.....
\n" ); document.write( "multiply 204.13 by that to get 68.04333333......
\n" ); document.write( "round that to 2 decimal places to get 68.04
\n" ); document.write( "subtract that from 204.13 to get 136.09
\n" ); document.write( "the sale price is 136.09.
\n" ); document.write( "that should be your answer rounded to the nearest penny.
\n" ); document.write( "note that you divide the percent by 100 to get the rate and the rate is what you use in the calculations.
\n" ); document.write( "note also that .33333333..... is equal to 1/3.
\n" ); document.write( "1/3 multiplied by 204.13 is equal to 68.04 rounded to the nearest penny.
\n" ); document.write( "that is the discount.
\n" ); document.write( "the sale price is the regular price minus the discount.\r
