Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. The regular price of the item is $40 \$40 .
2. The discount offered is 20% 20\% of the regular price.
3. We need to calculate the sale price that Hong paid after the discount.

STEP 2

1. Calculate the discount amount.
2. Subtract the discount from the regular price to find the sale price.

STEP 3

Calculate the discount amount by finding 20% 20\% of the regular price.
Discount=0.20×40 \text{Discount} = 0.20 \times 40

STEP 4

Perform the multiplication to find the discount amount.
Discount=0.20×40=8 \text{Discount} = 0.20 \times 40 = 8

STEP 5

Subtract the discount amount from the regular price to find the sale price.
Sale Price=408 \text{Sale Price} = 40 - 8

STEP 6

Calculate the sale price.
Sale Price=32 \text{Sale Price} = 32
Hong paid:
$32\boxed{\$32}
