Jane bought a new sweater. It was priced at $32.00 and there was a 25%
discount. Jane gave the cashier $40. What was her change?
$8.00
$24.00
$16.00
Jane did not get change.
The original price of the sweater was $32.00, and there was a 25% discount which means she got a discount of (25/100)*$32.00 = $8.00.
So Jane paid $32.00 - $8.00 = $24.00 after the discount.
Since Jane gave the cashier $40.00, her change would be $40.00 - $24.00 = $16.00.
Therefore, the answer is $16.00.
