Isabell · Answer 1

I'm not sure what the question is asking (how much off or how much you pay) so I'll give you both. To calculate the percent off you put in your calculator. 20X49, which tells you that you save $9.80. To calculate how much you'd have to pay, you subtract this value from the original one of $49, which tells you that you will pay $39.20

49 times 0.2 = 9.8

$9.80
