An item is regularly priced at $27. Austin bought it on sale for 65% off the regular price.
Find out how much Austin paid
To find out how much Austin paid, we first need to determine how much money he saved with the 65% discount.
The discount amount is found by multiplying the regular price by the discount rate:
Discount = 27 * (65/100) = $<<27*(65/100)=17.55>>17.55
Next, we subtract the discount from the regular price to find out how much Austin paid:
Amount paid = Regular price - Discount = $27 - $17.55 = $<<27-17.55=9.45>>9.45
Therefore, Austin paid $9.45.
