Answer:
Part 1. B. 85 - 85(0.35)
Part 2. C. $55.25
Explanation:
The original jacket is $85 dollars, and it is on sale for 35% off. First we need to find 35% of 85, so turn it into a decimal to get 0.35. To get 35% of 85, we multiply 85(0.35). Since 85(0.35) represents the 35% taken off, we need to subtract that from the original amount, 85, to get the jacket's price after applying the sale. In expression form, this would be 85 - 85(0.35).
85 - 85(0.35) = 85 - 27.75 = 55.25
Hope this helps!
