7. 7-7 Applying Percents Additional Example 1: Finding Discounts A clothing store is having a 10% off sale. If Angela wants to buy a sweater whose regular price is $19.95, about how much will she pay for the sweater after the discount? Step 1: First round $19.95 to $20. Step 2: Find 10% of $20 by multiplying 0.10 20. 10% of 20 = 0.10 $20 = $2.00 The approximate discount is $2.00. Subtract this amount from $20.00 to estimate the cost of the sweater. $20.00 – $2.00 = $18.00 Angela will pay about $18.00 for the sweater.

8. 7-7 Applying Percents Check It Out: Example 1 A fishing store is having a 10% off sale. If Gerald wants to buy a fishing pole whose regular price is $39.95, about how much will he pay for the pole after the discount? $39.95 rounds to $40. 10% of 40 = $4 40 - 4 = $36 He will pay about $36.

9. 7-7 Applying Percents When estimating percents, use percents that you can calculate mentally. You can find 10% of a number by moving the decimal point one place to the left. You can find 1% of a number by moving the decimal point two places to the left. You can find 5% of a number by finding one- half of 10% of the number.

10. 7-7 Applying Percents Additional Example 2: Finding Tips Ben’s dinner bill is $7.85. He wants to leave a tip that is 15% of the bill. About how much should his tip be? Step 1: First round $7.85 to $8. Step 2: Think: 15% = 10% + 5% Step 3: 5% = 10% ÷ 2 = $0.80 ÷ 2 = $0.40 Step 4: 15% = 10% + 5%. Ben should leave about $1.20 as a tip. = $0.80 + $0.40 = $1.20 10% of $8 = 0.10 $8 = $0.80

11. 7-7 Applying Percents Check It Out: Example 2 Fran’s breakfast bill is $13.95. She wants to leave a tip that is 20% of the bill. About how much should her tip be? $13.95 rounds to $14. 2 1.40= $2.80 She should tip about $2.80. 10% of 14 = $1.40

12. 7-7 Applying Percents Additional Example 3: Finding Sales Tax Ann is buying a dog bed for $29.75. The sales tax rate is 7%. About how much will the total cost of the dog bed be? Step 1: First round $29.75 to $30. Step 2: Think: 7% = 7 1% 1% of $30 = 0.01 $30 = $0.30 Step 3: 7% = 7 1%. = 7 $0.30 = $2.10. The approximate sales tax is $2.10. Add this amount to $30 to estimate the total cost of the dog bed. $30 + $2.10 = $32.10 Ann will pay about $32.10 for the dog bed.

13. 7-7 Applying Percents Check It Out: Example 3A $19.83 rounds to $20. 1% of 20 = $0.20 8 0.20 = $1.60. 20.00 + 1.60 = $21.60 The total cost will be about $21.60. Erik is buying a blanket for $19.83. The sales tax rate is 8%. About how much will the total cost of the blanket be?
