You would reduce the 40 by 2 - giving you a new total of 38
5
3 dollars, because 40 percent of 5.00 is 2.00, and subtracting that from 5 is simply 3.
5 percent of 40 = 2 5% of 40 = 5% * 40 = 5%/100% * 40 = 0.05 * 40 = 2
40 percent off is the same as taking off 40/100 = 4/10so 40/100 = 2/5 = two fifths.so divide 5 into 150 =30 and multiply by 2 =60take the 60 from 150.00 and your answer is 90====================================Easier way:40 percent off leaves 60 percent on."60 percent" means "0.6",and "of" means "times".0.6 times 150 = 90
5 percent of 40 = 25% of 40= 5% * 40= 0.05 * 40= 2
5% of 40.00 is 2 so: 40-2 = 38
A $2 discount, you pay $38.
