regular price = 49.99
66% of regular price = 0.66*49.99 = 32.9934 which rounds to 32.99

Answer: choice A

Answer:

The dollar markdown is:

A.  $32.99

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

At the end of the summer, Walgreens advertised blow-up pools for 66% off the regular price.

Jeff Jones saw a pool with a regular price of $49.99.

i.e. there is a markdown of 66% of the regular price.

i.e. 66% of $ 49.99

which is calculated as:

[tex]66\%\times 49.99\\\\=\dfrac{66}{100}\times 49.99\\\\=\dfrac{66\times 49.99}{100}\\\\=\dfrac{3299.34}{100}\\\\=\$\ 32.99[/tex]

Hence, the dollar markdown is:

A. $32.99.
