1 (a) The price of an electric drill is $78.

In a sale, the price is reduced by 15%.

Calculate the sale price.

100 × x = 78 ×85

X = 63.6

Ans : $ 63.6 [2]

(b) The exchange rate between dollars ($) and euros (€) is $1 = €0.85.
Michael changes $100 to euros.
He buys a clock costing €58.99.
He changes the remaining money back to dollars.

Calculate the amount, in dollars, he has left.

$ € x = 100 × 0.85

1 0.85 x = € 85

100 x

Rest of money = € 85 – € 58.99

= € 26.01

$ € x × 0.85 = 1 × 26.01

1 0.85 x = 30.6
