1. The new sales price is $24.
- Calculation: 40% of $40 is $16. Subtracting the discount from the original price: $40 - $16 = $24.
2. The original price was $50.
- Calculation: A 50% discount means the sales price is half the original price. So, original price = $25 * 2 = $50.
3. You got a 20% discount.
- Calculation: Discount percentage = (Discount amount / Original price) * 100 = ($25 / $125) * 100 = 20%.
4. Two pens will cost you $3.45.
- Calculation: First pen costs $2.30. Second pen has a 50% discount: 50% of $2.30 is $1.15. Total cost: $2.30 + $1.15 = $3.45.
5. You got a 20% discount.
- Calculation: Discount percentage = (Discount amount / Original price) * 100 = ($12 / $60) * 100 = 20%.
6. You paid $105.50 for both items.
- Calculation: Jeans discount: 12% of $100 is $12, so jeans cost $88. T-shirt discount: 25% of $50 is $12.50, so t-shirt cost $37.50. Total: $88 + $37.50 = $125.50.
