You went to the department store and the store was offering a 35% discount. The original price of a jacket was $150. How much was the sales price?

Respuesta :

Answer: $97.50

Explanation: So the original price is 150, and the store gave a 35% discount. The original price is always 100%, so you have to do 100-35 to get the percent you pay for. That would be 65%. Now, 65% of 150 will be $97.50, and that’s how you get your answer.
