Given:

20% off $339

Determine the answer:

Solution:

Take first the 20% of 339 then subtract it by 339, to do so, we change first the percentage into decimal. In converting a percentage into decimal, divide the percentage by 100, hence in converting a decimal to percentage, multiply the percentage by 100.

= 20/100

= 0.2

=(0.2)($339)

= $67.8

= $339 - $67.8

=$271.2

Final answer:

=$271.2
