An item costs $45.60. if there is a 30% discount on the item, what is the discounted cost of the item?

Discounted Cost= Cost of Item - (Cost of Item * % Discount)

= $45.60 - ($45.60 * 30%)
convert % to decimal (30% ÷ 100)

= 45.60 - (45.60 * 0.30)
multiply in parentheses

= 45.60 - 13.68

= $31.92 discounted cost

ANSWER: The discounted cost of the item is $31.92 (savings of $13.68).

Hope this helps!  :)
