A tv is advertised as 20% discount. If the original price is 450.00 what is the new price?
Help please
450 x .2 = d (d=discount)
450 - d = new price
To calculate the new price after a 20% discount, you need to subtract the discount from the original price.
First, convert the percentage discount to a decimal by dividing it by 100:
20% = 20/100 = 0.20
Next, calculate the discount amount by multiplying the original price by the decimal discount:
Discount = 0.20 * 450.00 = 90.00
Finally, subtract the discount amount from the original price to find the new price:
New Price = Original Price - Discount = 450.00 - 90.00 = 360.00
Therefore, the new price after a 20% discount on an original price of 450.00 is 360.00.
