Apan has an original price of $32 but is marked down by 15 percent. which equation shows the new price of the pan?

The formula for doing this is 'is/of=%/100.'
We can plug this in and get n/32=15/100, because in the word problem, there is an 'of' before 32. That could be determined to know which side it goes.
We can cross multiply.
100n=32*15
100n=480
100n/100=480/100
n=4.8.
But that is not the final answer. Now we need to subtract 4.8 from 32. 
When we subtract, it will be 27.2. 

The final answer is that the pan will be $27.20 after the 15% discount. 

The expressions would be 0.25a

Do the math. she originally had 50 dollars on her gift card and she had 12 dollars left on her gift card after she finished her shopping spree. if you subtract 50 minus 12 you get thirty eight dollars as your answer. so therefore, ciara spent 38 dollars total o
