An item is regularly priced at 

$80

. It is now priced at a discount of 

40%

 off the regular price. What is the price now?

Since the discount is 40% off,

the sale price will be 100% - 40% = 60% of the regular price.

 

60% of $80 = 0.6 * $80 = $48

40% off means that it is now worth 60% - .60 -  of its original cost

 

So it now costs

 

$80  * .60   =  $48
