$210.00

$150.00

$178.57

$350.00

Respuesta :

The cost of the table would be $150. 40% of $250 is $100.

Answer:

$150.00

Step-by-step explanation:

$250.00 - 40%

First, find 40% of $250.00 by multiplying $250.00 with 0.4 (40% in decimal form)

$250.00 * 0.4 = $100.00

Next, subtract the "percentage off" from the selling price

$250.00 - $100.00 = $150.00

Cost is $150.00
