Question

Tiffany ordered a shirt online that cost her $26 total. The package arrived late so the seller
took 14 percent off the price. How much did she end up paying?

Answer 1

Answer:

$22.36

Step-by-step explanation:

The shirt that costs her $26 had the seller take 14 percent off the price.

So instead of paying 100% of the $26, payed 100-14 = 86% of the $26.

How much did she end up paying?

    % to $

100% is $26

 86% is $ x

Cross multiply to find x:

x= (86*26) /100 = $22.36
