If you want to buy an item in a store that costs $45.50 and is on sale for 10% off, then how much would the item actually cost you after the discount? Round to the nearest cent.

$40.95

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 45.50 by 0.10 and get 4.55. 4.55 is the discount. Then subtract 4.55 from 45.50 and get 40.95

$40.95

Move the decimal over to the left once and you get 10% off the all you do is subtract that from the original cost.
