Mary went to Footlocker to get sneakers. The sneakers cost $125 but they are on sale for 35% off. How much will Mary save on the sneakers and what is the sale price after the discount?

Respuesta :

you have to times 125 by 0.35 to find how much the sneakers have been reduced so she’d save $43.75.

Answer:

$43.75 = amount saved

$81.25 = sale price

Step-by-step explanation:

If you get a 35% discount, then you will pay 65% (100% - 35%) of the original cost of the sneakers.

So, .65(125) = $81.25 = sale price

125 - 81.25 = $43.75 = amount saved
