if the original amount was $40.00 and the discount is 20% what is the amount of discount and the new price?​

Respuesta :

Answer:

$32

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

[tex]t=40[/tex]

s = -20% discount

In order to find the answer, we have to find 20% of 40, and then subtract that number by the total price.

[tex]\frac{20\times40}{100} =20\times40=800\div100=8[/tex]

20% discount = 8 dollars

[tex]40-8=32[/tex]

[tex]t=32[/tex]

Hope this helps.
