I got 9.00, is this correct Ms. Sue? :)
Yes.
To find the discount on a T-shirt that is now on sale for 25% off, you can follow these steps:
1. Calculate the discount amount by multiplying the original price of the T-shirt by the percentage discount.
Discount amount = Original price * Percentage discount
2. Substitute the given values into the formula.
Discount amount = $36.00 * 0.25
3. Perform the calculation.
Discount amount = $9.00
Therefore, the discount on the T-shirt is $9.00.
