Answer:

42.50

Step-by-step explanation:

If we get 15% off, we still have to pay (100-15) = 85% of the price

The sale price = original * percent we still have to pay

       sale price = 50 *.85

                            42.50

The sale price of the item is $42.50

The item is 15% off. This means that you will pay 85% of the total cost instead of paying 100%. (100% - 15% = 85%).

0.850 × $50 = $42.50.

Therefore, the sale price on this item is $42.50.
