Answer:

28% off 160.00 is 115.20

The difference is 44.80

Step-by-step explanation:

One way is to multiply 160 by 28 percent, and then divide the answer by one hundred, then deduct that result from the original price.

Purchase Price:

$160

Discount:

(160 x 28)/100 = $44.80

Final Price:

160 - 44.80 = $115.20

Thus, a product that normally costs $160 with a 28 percent discount will cost you $115.20, and you saved $44.80.

You can also calculate how much you save by simply moving the period in 28.00 percent two spaces to the left, and then multiply the result by $160 as follows: $160 x .28 = $44.80 savings.

Furthermore, you can get the final price by simply deducting .28 from 1 and multiplying it by $160 as follows: (1 - .28) x $160 = $115.20 final price.

Answer:

160-44.8=115.2

Step-by-step explanation:

160 would be 100%

28%=x

[tex]\frac{160}{x} = \frac{100}{28}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x}{160} =\frac{28}{100}[/tex]      x=44.8

28% of 160 would be 44.8

160-44.8=115.2
