Fabric costs14.00 per yard. If you buy 5 yards or more ,you can get 20% off. how much would 5 yards cost on sale?
.8 * 14 * 5 = $56
Thanks i got the same answer in a different way
To find out how much 5 yards of fabric would cost on sale, we need to calculate the discount first and then subtract it from the original price.
The original price per yard is $14.00. Since you are buying 5 yards, the total original price would be 5 yards * $14.00 per yard = $70.00.
The discount is 20%, which means you would pay only 80% of the original price. To calculate the discount amount, you need to find 80% of $70.00, which is (80/100) * $70 = $56.00.
Finally, you subtract the discount amount from the original price to find the final sale price. Therefore, 5 yards of fabric on sale would cost $70.00 - $56.00 = $14.00.
So, 5 yards of fabric would cost $14.00 on sale.
