A special offer at the grand opening of a new theater has tickets discounted at 8%. If the tickets sell for $12, how much will you pay after the discount?

you would pay $11.04

Step-by-step explanation:

$12 x .08= .96

$12 - 0.96 = $11.04

11.04

Step-by-step explanation:

So, a ticket cost 12$.

We need to find the price when it of 8% off, whihc is tecnically 92% of the orginal price.

Putting this into decimal form:

0.92

So to find this price, we need to multiply the orginal price by the percentage:

12*0.92

0.02*12 is 2*24 adding 2 decimals which equals 0.24

0.9*12 is 12*9 adding 1 deecimal which equals 10.8

Add them together: 0.24+10.8 = 11.04

So 11.04 is our new cost.

Hope this helps!
