A pair of shoes is on sale for 15% off. With this discount, customers will save $9 if they buy the shoes.

Total Price: 60$

Step-by-step explanation:

What you are solving is 15% of x is $9.

To find this, there all multiple methods but this was the way I was taught. I would find 10% which would be 6$. I know this because 5% of 9 is 3 so I subtracted 3 it would be subtracting 5%. 10% = 6

To get to the full price, you multiply 10% to get to 100% (multiply by 10) 10 x 6 = 60

And to double check your answer, you can find 15% of 60 by taking 10% (6$) and 5% (3$) which would be 15% equalling 9$.

the answer would be d

straight away you can eliminate a and c because not all books contain a scientific skill because some may be fiction. c is also wrong because it saids that the only way children can learn is through books which is incorrect.

b is also wrong because reading can be a scientific skill but not always, therefore it is wrong which leaves you with d, the correct answer since it said that it can children learn.

hope this ! : 3
