The final price is $ 40
Solution:
A store in Minnesota advertises that on a holiday, everything is 20% off
Discount = 20 %
A person buys shoes for $40 and socks for $10
Therefore, Total price before discount is given as:
Total price = 40 + 10 = 50
Therefore,
Total price before discount = $ 50
Discount = 20 %
Therefore, discount price is 20 % of 50
[tex]Discount\ price = 20 \% \times 50\\\\Discount\ price = \frac{20}{100} \times 50\\\\Discount\ price = 10[/tex]
Thus the discount price is $ 10
Final price is given as:
Final price = Total price before discount - discount price
Final price = 50 - 10 = 40
Thus the final price is $ 40
