The sweater shack is offering a 20% discount on sweaters. If the regular price of a sweater is $15.00, what is the discount?

15 * 0.2 = ?

565

To find the discount, you need to calculate 20% of the regular price of the sweater.

Here's how:

Step 1: Convert the percentage to a decimal. Divide the percentage (20) by 100: 20/100 = 0.20.

Step 2: Multiply the regular price of the sweater ($15.00) by the decimal value calculated in Step 1: $15.00 * 0.20 = $3.00.

Therefore, the discount on the sweater is $3.00.
