Sagot :

Given in the question:

a.) A coat is marked down 40% off.

b.) The original price was 115.00.

To be able to determine the price we will be using the equation below:

[tex]\text{ Discounted Price = (Original Price) x (}\frac{\text{ 100 - \% Discount}}{100})[/tex]

We get,

[tex]\text{ Discounted Price = (Original Price) x (}\frac{\text{ 100 - \% Discount}}{100})[/tex][tex]\text{= (115.00) x (}\frac{\text{ 100 - 4}0}{100})[/tex][tex]\text{ = 115.00 x 0}.60[/tex][tex]\text{Discounted Price = }69.00[/tex]

Therefore, the price of the coat will be 69.00.
