Math Problem Statement

The pizza shack discount 20% off the regular selling price on the purchase of 3 or more pizzas what is the sale price on the purchase of 3 pizzas that regularly sell for 10.75 $ $16.75 and $20.75

Solution

To find the sale price of three pizzas with a 20% discount applied, let's first calculate the total regular price and then apply the discount.

Step 1: Calculate the total regular price

Add the prices of the three pizzas: 10.75+16.75+20.75=48.2510.75 + 16.75 + 20.75 = 48.25

Step 2: Apply the 20% discount

A 20% discount means you pay 80% of the original price. So, we calculate 80% of 48.2548.25:

48.25×0.80=38.6048.25 \times 0.80 = 38.60

Final Result:

The sale price of the three pizzas is $38.60.
