Answer (1)
[tex]\begin{aligned}\mathsf{Original\ Price} &= \mathsf{PHP\ 1,\!000.00} \\\mathsf{Discount\ Rate} &= \mathsf{30\%} \\\\\mathsf{Discount\ Amount} &= \mathsf{30\%\ of\ PHP\ 1,\!000.00} \\&= \mathsf{\frac{30}{100} \times 1000} \\&= \mathsf{PHP\ 300.00} \\\\\mathsf{New\ Price} &= \mathsf{PHP\ 1,\!000.00 - PHP\ 300.00} \\&= \mathsf{PHP\ 700.00} \\\\\therefore\ \mathsf{Margarette\ will\ pay\ PHP\ 700.00\ for\ the\ jacket.}\end{aligned}[/tex]
