Question 188039: Please help me sovle this i am totally stuck. Please and thank you.
Andie received a bill from her mechanic for $258. If she pays the bill early, she recives a 5% discount off the total. How much would Andie have to pay if she pays the bill early?

Andie would pay $258 less 5% of $258, or...
$258 - 0.05($258) = $258 - $12.90 = $245.10
