off sale store wide. What is the sale price of the book shelf?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$138.00

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of the shelf is $345.00.  The new sale price is the original price of  100% less the 60% of the original price.  That means the sales price is 40% of the original price.

You can do this 2 ways:

1.  $345 x 60% or .60 = $207

   $345-207 = $138

or

2.  $345 x 40% or .40 = $138

Answer:$138

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the store is on sale 60% out of a whole 100%

= 100% - 60% = 40%

40% is [tex]\frac{40}{100}[/tex] = 0.4

0.4 x 345 = $138
