ince the price of the jacket is 85 dollars

Since The discount is 40%

Change the 40% to decimal by divide it by 100, then

[tex]\frac{40}{100}=0.4[/tex]

Multiply it by the price of the jacket to get the discount

[tex]0.4\times85=34[/tex]

Subtract the discount from the price of the jacket to get the new price

[tex]85-34=51[/tex]

The price of the jacket is $51
