Q. 2020. Angela bought a cat sweater that was on sale for 40% 40 \% off the original price. If the original price was $60 \$ 60 , what was the sale price of the sweater?\newlineset up a labeled proportion!
  1. Calculate Discount Amount: First, we need to calculate the amount of discount Angela gets on the sweater. The original price of the sweater is $60\$60, and the discount is 40%40\% of that price.\newlineDiscount Amount = Original price ∗* Discount percentage\newline= $60×40100\$60 \times \frac{40}{100}\newline= $60×0.4\$60 \times 0.4\newline= $24\$24
  2. Find Sale Price: Next, we subtract the discount amount from the original price to find the sale price of the sweater.\newlineSale price = Original price - Discount Amount\newline= $60\$60 - $24\$24\newline= $36\$36
