Astore has all board games on sale for 25% off the regular price. a checker set has a sale price of $12. it is then moved to a clearance table where every item is discounted 40% off its regular price. what is the clearance price of the checker set?

We'll need to find out 40% of 12 then subtract that amount because we're still paying 60% of the original price.

Change the percent to a decimal: 0.4
Multiply the sale price and the decimal
12 · 0.4 = 4.8

Subtract 40% of the price from 12
12 - 4.8 = 7.2
The clearance price of the checker set is $7.20
