The discount on the item is \$6.
Solución
1. First, we determine the discount rate which is \( 10\% \).
2. Convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100:
\[
10\% = \frac{10}{100} = 0.10
\]
3. Multiply the original price \( \$60 \) by \( 0.10 \) to find the discount amount:
\[
\$60 \times 0.10 = \$6
\]
4. The discount on the item is \( \$6 \).

To calculate the amount of discount on the item, you simply multiply the original price by the discount percentage. So, for Lindsey's item, it would be \( \$60 \times 0.10 = \$6.00 \). Therefore, the discount she receives is \( \$6.00 \). Now, if Lindsey is thinking of buying this discounted item, she should also keep in mind the final price after applying the discount. Subtracting the discount from the original price means the final price will be \( \$60 - \$6 = \$54.00 \). A quick calculation like this one can help manage your budget and ensure you’re getting the best deal!
