Amount is closest to the sale price?
A. $9.88
B. $14.50
C. $25.00
D. $29.50

Respuesta :

So $39.50 is the price when you are paying full price, which can be represented by 100%. If you’re paying 25% less, than you are only paying 75% of the original price. Simply multiply $39.50 by 75%(expresses as 0.75) to determine the sale price. 39.50(.75)=29.62 The closest value to that is $29.50, so D is the answer.
