1) In a sale a coat costing £45.90 is reduced by 35%. What is the new cost of the coat? How much was saved in the sale?

BTW the last one was urgent i need to hand it in tomorrow.

35% of 45.90 = ,35 * 45.90 = 16.06

To calculate the new cost of the coat after the 35% reduction, you need to find 35% of the original cost and subtract it from the original cost.

Step 1: Calculate the reduction amount:
35% of £45.90 = 0.35 * £45.90 = £16.07 (rounded to two decimal places)

Step 2: Subtract the reduction amount from the original cost:
£45.90 - £16.07 = £29.83 (rounded to two decimal places)

Therefore, the new cost of the coat after the 35% reduction is £29.83.

To find out how much was saved in the sale, you need to calculate the difference between the original cost and the new cost:

£45.90 - £29.83 = £16.07

Therefore, £16.07 was saved in the sale.
