    $60.00\$60.00
  4. D
    $194.00\$194.00

Cevap

The final sale price of the drawing tablet is $140.00\$140.00.
To find the final sale price, first calculate the discount amount by multiplying the regular price by the discount percentage ($200.00×0.30=$60.00\$200.00 \times 0.30 = \$60.00). Then, subtract this discount amount from the regular price to find the total cost ($200.00−$60.00=$140.00\$200.00 - \$60.00 = \$140.00).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Convert the discount percentage into a decimal.
30%=0.3030\% = 0.30
To calculate the discount amount, the percentage must be in decimal form.
2
Multiply the regular price by the decimal to find the discount amount.
$200.00×0.30=$60.00\$200.00 \times 0.30 = \$60.00
This determines exactly how much money will be taken off the regular price.
3
Subtract the discount amount from the regular price.
$200.00−$60.00=$140.00\$200.00 - \$60.00 = \$140.00
The final sale price is the original price minus the total savings.

Calculating a single-step percentage discount and subtracting it from the original price to find the final sale price.

Alternatif Yöntem

Instead of calculating the discount amount and subtracting, you can multiply the original price by the percentage you will actually pay. If the discount is 30%30\%, you are paying 100%−30%=70%100\% - 30\% = 70\% of the original price. Calculate 70%70\% of $200.00\$200.00: $200.00×0.70=$140.00\$200.00 \times 0.70 = \$140.00.
