Sweater costs 56.00
To calculate the discounted price of the sweater
56 * (30/100) = 16.8
We used (30/100) to find out the 30 percent of the sweater which will be on discount/reduced.
56-16.8=39.2 is the discounted price
Then we subtract the amount of discount from the original price of sweater to find out the discounted price.
Feel free to ask if you have any questions.
