A group of 5 friends were to contribute equally to purchase items from a store. If store offered them a promotional discount of 15%, how much did each friend pay, given a total bill of $1200?
Correct answer: E
Explanation
At the non-discounted price, each friend would pay $240, as $1200 divided by 5 friends is $240 per friend. But if the bill is 15% off, then each friend would pay 15% less. 15% of $240 is $36, so each friend saves $36 and pays the remaining $204
CORRECT OPTION:OPTION E
