Kim's furniture store is offering a 30% discount on all its armchairs. using a proportion, find the discount of the price of an armchair that originally cost $266.00.

The discount is $79.80

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve this using proportions.  We take the percent out of 100 on one side of the ratio and the discount over the total price on the other.

30         discount

  =

100        266

30* 266 = 100 * discount

7980=100 discount

Divide each side by 100

7980/100 = discount

79.80 = discount

explanation:

the loan estimate encourages consumers to shop. since it is the lenders who are required to issue a standardized loan estimate in a specific time frame, this way consumers are provided an opportunity to compare lenders and their products. otherwise consumer wouldn't know the benefits offered by other lenders.  

if a loan originator does not provide a loan estimate within 3 business days of receiving a completed loan application, that lender is in violation. lenders are required to issue a loan estimate within 3 days of applying for a loan or within 7 days prior to closing. having a loan estimate has following information.

not having loan estimate won't give you an idea of money to be borrowed.

you get to know your interest rates.

you also get to know if your interest rate can or may vary.

not having a good faith estimate can keep you unaware of aforementioned points.
