Acoat that originally sold for $369.00 is on sale at a 40% discount? how much will you pay for the coat?

The coat will cost $221.40. If you move a decimal two spaces to the left from 40% (.40) and multiply it by $369.00, you'll get $147.60. You then subtract $147.60 from $369.00 and get $221.40, the final price of the coat.

The best way to work out something like this is to find out what ten percent is. The way in which you do this is to divide the price by 10. This gives you $36.90. Therefore, this is equal to ten percent. As you're looking for forty percent, you need ot mulitply the answer by four, and this gives you $147.60. You then have to subtract $147.60 from $369
$369-147.60= $221.40
I deleted my answer and put the correct one- sorry about that, my calculator seems to have a mind of its own :)

Get 40 cups.u would say since the bowl and cups must be equal it would be 40
