A couch with a list price of $2200 will be discounted 35% at the time of purchase. What is the sale price before taxes?
To calculate the sale price before taxes, we need to multiply the list price by the discount percentage.
Discount amount = List price x Discount percentage
Discount amount = $2200 x 35%
Discount amount = $2200 x 0.35
Discount amount = $770
Sale price before taxes = List price - Discount amount
Sale price before taxes = $2200 - $770
Sale price before taxes = $1430
Therefore, the sale price before taxes is $1430.
