Math Problem Statement

How much is the discounted price of an item which originally sells at 180 pesos if it was sold on a 40% discount?

Solution

To find the discounted price of the item, follow these steps:

  1. Calculate the discount amount:

Discount=Original Price×Discount Percentage\text{Discount} = \text{Original Price} \times \text{Discount Percentage} Discount=180×0.40=72 pesos\text{Discount} = 180 \times 0.40 = 72 \text{ pesos}

  1. Subtract the discount from the original price:

Discounted Price=Original PriceDiscount\text{Discounted Price} = \text{Original Price} - \text{Discount} Discounted Price=18072=108 pesos\text{Discounted Price} = 180 - 72 = 108 \text{ pesos}

Thus, the discounted price is 108 pesos.
