Jane bought a new sweater. It was priced at $56.00 and there was a 40%
discount. Jane gave the cashier $60. What was her change?
A $52
B Jane did not get any change.
C $26.40
D $33.60
First, we need to calculate the discount on the sweater.
40% of $56.00 = ($40/$100) x $56.00 = $22.40
This means that Jane paid $56.00 - $22.40 = $33.60 for the sweater.
Since Jane gave the cashier $60, her change would be:
$60 - $33.60 = $26.40
Therefore, the answer is C) $26.40.
