Question

If a laptop originally costs $800, the balance due after the 10% discount and $150 gift card is applied is

Answer 1

So the original price is $800. And there is a 10% discount, so:

10% = 80
90% = $720

And there is also a $150 gift card applied, leaving us with a final balance of $570 (720-150)

Answer 2

The balance to be paid on the laptop after the discount and the gift card of $150 are applied is $570.

The laptop costs $800 and has a discount of 10%. After the discount, the cost would be:

= Cost x (1 - discount rate)

= 800 x ( 1 - 10%)

= 800 x 90%

= $720

A gift card of $150 is then applied:

= Discounted price - Gift card

= 720 - 150

= $570

In conclusion, the balance after the discount and the gift card is $570.
