How much would you pay with the discount

Question

You want to buy a coat listed at $54.50, but you can get a 15% off. How much would you pay with the discount

Answer 1

15% = 0.15

1 - 0.15 = .085

54.50 * 0.85 = 46.325

So you would pay $46.32 or .33 depending on your rounding instructions. (Some always round 5 up. Others will round 5 to the even number, be it up or down.)
