If something is $6.50 and its 50% off how much will it cost?
could someone show me a quick & easy way to find the answer

With 50% off, that means there is still 50% "on", or remaining, that you will have to pay. And 50% is one-half.

therefore, $6.50 / 2 = $3.25.

But that's not the final answer....gotta add the sales tax!

The tax will be applied to the $3.25 amount. If your tax is 5%, then multiply the amount of the sale - here $3.25 - by .05, which equals a tax of 17 cents, cuz they always round up.

So the final amount, in this example, is $3.25 + $.17 =

$3.42

in this case it is just half of 6.50 which is 3.25. It might not be as simple for a different discount. Take this example if something is 10 dollars, but has a discount of 70%, you take 10 multiple it by the 70% or .70 and you get 7 dollars, however that is the discount price so you subtract it from the original price of ten...and you're left with a price of $3. It might be harder for different numbers but that is how to use a percentage discount.

This is one of those questions that can be interpreted in about three different ways. The correct answer depends on the meaning of the word "its".

The most common interpretation is: Take 50% off the marked price, and if the marked price is $6.50, then $3.25 is of course the answer.

Secondly, if the ticket says the marked price (or ticketed price) is 50% off (already), then you will pay $6.50.

Then there's Ben P's interpretation: If the ticketed price has already been marked down 50% from the original price to $6.50, the Questioner wants to know what was the original price before the markdown??? This interpretation yields an answer of $13.00. ($6.50 / .50 = $13.00).

To say which of these is correct, we would need the Questioner to provide more info in answer to the questions raised here.

when shopping in stores the easiest way to calculate these things in your head is just to divide the whole dollar amount into two, in this case, six into 2 is 3, then worry about the change: half of 50 cents is 25 cents. so you get $3.25

lol just divide 6.50 by two which is 3.25 or do 6.50 times 0.50 which is equal to 3.25.

50% is half. or .50. 6.50

32500 4 decimal places from the right puts the decimal point after the 3, thus 3.2500 which is the same as 3.25. $.
that would be how to do any decimal multiplication, but quick easy way to do this one is just to know that half of $6.50 is $3.25. But anyway when you multiply decimals you add all the amount of numbers after the decimal point,from both figures, and count from the right end- and that's where the decimal point goes. a percent is a 100th. So 50% is .50 or 50 100ths.
Also, to answer your question as asked: if it's $6.50 and it's 50% off, it's $6.50. It was $13.00.
