Q. Mrs. Garrett is interested in a particular bracelet. Its original price was

\$34

, but it is now marked down by

. What is the price of the bracelet now?

Calculate discount amount: Calculate the discount amount on the bracelet. $\newline$ Original price: $\$34$ $\newline$ Discount rate: $50\%$ $\newline$ Discount amount = (Original price) $\times$ (Discount rate) $\newline$ Discount amount = $\$34 \times 0.50 = \$17$
Determine new price: Determine the new price of the bracelet after applying the discount. $\newline$ New price = Original price - Discount amount $\newline$ New price = $\$34$ - $\$17$ = $\$17$
