A- Determining sale prices: Using a regular calculator
Method 1: You can determine sale prices by finding the percent remaining after the discount is taken.
Example
A purse that regularly sells for $149 is on sale today for 30% off of the regular price.
What is the sale price before tax?
Solution
The percent of the price that remains is 100% - 30% = 70%
You will only pay 70% of 149 which is 149 x 70 : 100 = $104.30
Regular Price Sale Price (30% off)
$149 $104.30
