A section of books is marked down by 15 percent from an original price of $16 each. How much will it cost to buy three books from the sale section?



Answer :

Since there are 3 books, we can multiply 16 x 3 to get the price. 16 x 3 = 48, and 15% of 48 equals 7.2, because 0.15 x 48 = 7.2. But we are not done yet now, we need to subtract 48 - 7.2 to get our final answer. 48 - 7.2 = 40.8, so 40.8 is our final answer. :)

Answer:

$40.80
