A computer is reduced by 15% in a sale. The original price is £560. Calculate the sale price
560 * 0.85 = ?
559.25
560 / .85 = $658.82
To calculate the sale price of the computer, you need to subtract 15% of the original price from the original price.
Step 1: Calculate the discount amount:
Discount amount = 15% of £560
To calculate 15% of £560, you can multiply £560 by 0.15:
Discount amount = £560 * 0.15
Step 2: Subtract the discount amount from the original price:
Sale price = Original price - Discount amount
Now, let's calculate the sale price:
Discount amount = £560 * 0.15
= £84
Sale price = £560 - £84
= £476
So, the sale price of the computer is £476.
