Q. Casho has a loyalty card good for a 8% discount at her local pharmacy. What number should she multiply the prices on the tags by to find the price she would have to pay, before tax, in one step?Answer:
Calculate Discount Percentage: Casho receives an 8% discount on her purchases. To find the price she pays, we need to calculate the percentage of the price she actually pays after the discount. If the discount is 8%, then she pays 100%−8% of the original price.Calculation: 100%−8%=92%To use this in a multiplication step, we convert the percentage to a decimal.Calculation: 92%=0.92
