Carols mom is paying $36 for a meal. he has a 20% off coupon for the meal. what is the new discounted price?

The price for the meal after the coupon was used is : 28.80

Explanation:

A percentage is basically a fraction, with a denominator of 100, so:

10% = 10/100

15% = 15/100

Hence, 20% is 20/100

This fraction can be reduced to 1/5

Next multiply 36 by 1/5:

36 x 1/5 = 7.2

Another way to get the answer would be dividing by the reciprocal

36 divided by the reciprocal of 1/5 is 5/1, or just 5.

5 divided by 36 is 7.2

So, just add a zero to the end: 7. 20, that number is the amount that will be taken off.

Now we do the number that is taken off minus the amount of the meal:

7.20 - 36 = 28.80

The price for the meal after the coupon was used is : 28.80

Hope this helps! :)
