There is a shirt that originally costs $10.00. Now it is 45% off. How much is the shirt after the discount?

$5.50

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) The first step is finding what 45% of $10 is. We can do this by turning 45% into a decimal number (45%=0.45). We then multiply 0.45 by the $10.

2.) 0.45×$10=$4.50 ; We just found that 45% of $10 is $4.50

3.) Because the shirt is 45% less than the original price (45% off), we need to subtract the 45% (which is equal to $4.50) from the original price, $10

4.) $10-$4.50=$5.50, the new price
