Read the scenario and fill in the missing numerical values for the discount and the sale price.

Cevap:A hardware store is selling a power drill with a regular price of

\$120

. If the store is offering a

20\%

discount on all power tools, calculate the savings and the new price.

Discount amount:

\$

【24】
Final sale price:

\$

【96】

The discount amount is

\$24

, and the final sale price is

\$96

To find the discount amount, multiply the regular price (

\$120

) by the discount percentage (

20\%

0.20

), which equals

\$24

. To find the final sale price, subtract the

\$24

discount from the

\$120

regular price, which equals

\$96

Convert the discount percentage to a decimal.

20\% = 0.20

Percentages must be in decimal form to multiply them by dollar amounts.

Calculate the discount amount by multiplying the original price by the decimal discount rate.

\$120 \times 0.20 = \$24

This determines the exact dollar amount that will be saved.

Subtract the discount amount from the original price to find the final sale price.

\$120 - \$24 = \$96

The final sale price is the original price minus the savings.

Calculating the dollar amount of a percentage discount and determining the final sale price.
