Question

New glasses cost £80. If the prices fall by 5% in the sale – what is the new price of the glasses?​

Answer 1

Answer:

£76

Step-by-step explanation:

5% is the same as 0.05. 100% is the same as 1. To get the price of the new glasses we have to subtract 0.05 from 1 and multiply that by the original price. We get 0.95 and 0.95 times 80 and now you have 76 pound.
