Wallace received a 28 percent discount on an item priced at $275. What is the total price that he paid for it? cost after discount = price × (1 – discount percentage)

Respuesta :

So, just follow the formula given to you!


$275*(1-28%)
275*0.72
=198

(Basically just remember if you want to find the cost of something after discount just minus it off 100% , for example, 60% discount then times the original price to 0.4 to find the cost after the discount)

Hope this helps!

Answer: $198

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The discount percentage : 28 % =0.28

The price of item = $275

The given formula for total cost of item after discount :

[tex]\text{Cost after discount = Price *(1 – Discount percentage)}[/tex]

Substitute the value of price =$275 and discount percent = 0.28 in the above formula , we get

[tex]\text{Cost after discount =}275\times(1-0.28)\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Cost after discount =}275\times0.72\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Cost after discount =}\$192[/tex]

Hence, he paid the total price of $198 for it.
