So first, let's set up the problem. " A fleece top costs $34.00" Okay, original price = $34.00. "It is on sale for 1/4 off." That means a 25% discount. "what is the sale price?" Now we know what we're looking for.
So first you must find 25% of $34.00.
$34.00 * 25%
Now turn the percent into a decimal:
$34.00 * 0.25
Now multiply:
$8.50
So the discount is $8.50 off.
Now just subtract the discount from the original price
$34.00 - $8.50 = $25.50
The new sale price is $25.50!
Hope that helps!
