The price of a new computer is p dollars. The computer is on sale for 30% off. Which expression shows the savings that are being offered on the computer?

A.

p - 0.3p

B.

0.7 * p

C.

p : 30

D.

0.3 * p

A. P - 0.3P

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the price of the computer is P dollars and it's on sale for 30% off.

That's

30% / 100% x P

0.3 x P

0.3P

Savings being offered on the computer is therefore

P - 0.3P

This is because 0.3P is the discounted amount and to get the sale on amount, you subtract the discounted amount from the original price P
