Melissa bought a new dishwasher for$1,200. The manufacturer is offering a 15% rebate. How much will the dishwasher cost after the rebate?

Answer:

$1020.00

Step-by-step explanation:

15% means 15/100 divide by 100 and you get .15

.15 x 1200 gives us the rebate.  The rebate is 180.  We subtract that from 1200. 1200 -180 = 1020

Another way to think about this, is that we are taking 15% off we are leaving on 85%

.85 x 1200 = 1020
