Best Answer

In this problem, you're looking for a new total after a discount is applied. The 20% discount is a portion of the whole price, so what you're really looking for is 80% of the original number (100% - 20% = 80%). The equation would be:

$249.99 x 80% = ?

$249.99 x .80 = $199.99

To check your work, find the amount of the discount and subtract from the original number:

$249.99 x 20% =

$249.99 x .20 = $50.00 (rounded)

$249.99 - $50 = $199.99
