Price of the iPad with a 15% discount. Show all of your work please!! [4 points]
first thing about percentage problems think either decimals or factions.
Decimals if your teacher is nice and lets you use a calculator.
.15*329=$49.35 will be taken off the original price
$329.00-$49.35=$279.65 new discounted price
Now for the fractional version if you like factions:
x/$329.00 = 15/100
Let's cross and multiply then divide
$329.00*15=4935
4935/100=x
x=49.35
look it just like the decimals then you would subtract
$320.00-$49.35=$279.65 discounted price
do it yourself
To find the price of the iPad with a 15% discount, you need to subtract 15% of the original price from the original price.
Step 1: Convert the percentage into a decimal by dividing it by 100. So, 15% is equal to 0.15 (15/100 = 0.15).
Step 2: Multiply the original price by the decimal value of the discount. In this case, 0.15 multiplied by $329.00 gives you $49.35.
Step 3: Subtract the discount amount from the original price to find the discounted price. $329.00 minus $49.35 equals $279.65.
Therefore, the price of the iPad with a 15% discount would be $279.65.
