Charlie bought a pair of shorts at the store when they were having a 45% off sale. if the regular price of the pair of shorts was $24,how much did charlie pay?

The correct answer is $13,20.

Step-by-step explanation:

To be able to solve this exercise we must begin by analyzing the information we have:

We know that the store had a 45% discount.

We know that the pair of shorts that Charlie bought cost $ 24.

Now we just have to find out what the amount was deducted from Charlie to determine how much he paid.

If he obtained a 45% discount over 24, we must multiply that percentage by the total amount, and then divide it by 100:

(45. 24): 100 =

1080: 100 = 10.80.

We know then that the total price was discounted $ 10.80.

Thus:

24 - 10.80 = 13.20

In this way we verify that the correct answer is 13.20.

36/60

36/2=18

60/2=30

18/30

18/3=6

30/3=10

6/10

6/2=3

10/2=5

your final answer would be 3/5 of an

hope this !
