To find the sale price of each item, you have to multiply the original price by the sale percentage (in decimal form) to get how much money is taken off, then subtract that amount from the original price.

$179 x .15 (15%) = $26.85 (money off) $179 - $26.85 = $152.15 (sale price)

$749.96 x .35 (35%) = $262.485 --> rounded up to $262.49 (money off) $749.96 - $262.49 = $487.47 (sale price)

$488.20 x .25 (25%) = $122.05 (money off) $488.20 - $122.05 = $366.15 (sale price)

$250 x .20 (20%) = $50 (money off) $250 - $50 = $200 (sale price)

$320 x .25 (25%) = $80 (money off) $320 - $80 = **$240 (sale price) **

$93.50 x .05 (5%) = $4.675 -> round up to $4.68 (money off) $93.50 - $4.68 = **$88.82 (sale price)


**7. $535.99 x .20 (20%) = $107.198 --> round up to $107.20 (money off) ****$535.99 - $107.20 = $428.79 (sale price)

$919.70 x .10 (10%) = $91.97 (money off) $919.70 - $91.97 = ******$827.73 (sale price)**
