An item is regularly priced at $60. it is now priced at a 30% discount. what is the price now?

$42, you can do 60 x 0.3 which is equal to 18 and then do 60 - 18 and you get 42

60x0.7=$42 I used 0.7 because that is the same as 70% and the reason I used 70% is because it's a discount of 30 and a discount means to take away. So when you use 70% it means you pay 70% OF that sixty dollars. Notice how I used the word "of". The word "of" means to multiply in Math
