Given:

Price = $7.56

Determine the price of the item if there is a 20% off.

Solution:

In order to determine the price of the item, we simply need to take 20% of 7.56, by multiplying the deicmal value of 20% to 7.56 and subtracting the product to 7.56. 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)($7.56)
= $1.5

 = $7.56 - $1.5

=$6.04

Final answer:

=$6.04
