Question 920621: A coat is on sale for 25%off the original price of the coat is $75, what is the discounted price?
Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Original Price: $75
25% of Original Price = 25% of $75 = 0.25*75 = 18.75
The discount is $18.75. This is amount you save.
Final Price = (Original Price) - (Discount)
Final Price = (75) - (18.75)
Final Price = 56.25
-------------------------------------------------------
Alternative Method:
25% off means you pay for 100-25 = 75% of the original price
75% of 75 = 0.75*75 = 56.25
-------------------------------------------------------
Either way, the final answer is $56.25
Let me know if you need more help or if you need me to explain a step in more detail.
