As DrBob said, the right answer is NOT given as one of your choices. Please check the assigned problem again.
If the question is how much money will you pay, the answer will be something over $300.
you could take the purse for 12.5%less.i did not mean 12.05
the clerk says if you buy the purse cash roght npw ypu can take it for 12.5%less.how much money will she will save if she pay cash?
To find out how much money you will pay in cash for the purse, you need to calculate the discount amount and subtract it from the original price.
The discount amount is 12.05% of the original price, which can be calculated by multiplying the original price by 12.05% (or 0.1205).
Discount amount = $400 x 0.1205 = $48.20
To find the cash price, subtract the discount amount from the original price:
Cash price = $400 - $48.20 = $351.80
Therefore, the correct answer is option c) $351.80.
