Answer:

$47.96

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one - Convert 20% to the fraction 1/5

Step two - Multiply 59.95/5 (equivalent to 59.95*1/5 just easier to write down) to get 11.99

Step three - 11.99*4 because we want to find out what 80% of the cost is (which would be 20% or 1/5 in this case *4)

Answer - $47.96

Hoped this helped

A faster way would be multiplying 59.95 by 4/5 instead as it gives the same result with less steps.
