It is $$ 48.00$ $$48.00$

Explanation:

It is

$\frac{20}{100} \cdot $ 60.00 = $ 12.00$ $20/100*$60.00=$12.00$

So actually you have $$ 60.00 - $ 12.00 = $ 48.00$ $$60.00-$12.00=$48.00$

Think of $$ 60.00 - 20 %$ $$60.00 - 20%$ as $80 % \times 60.00$ $80% xx 60.00$ so there is only one step.

$80 % \times 60.00 = $ 48.00$ $80% xx 60.00 = $48.00$

Explanation:

if you need to find the price of purchase that is advertised as $20 %$ $20%$ off, you can reduce the suggested multiplication/subtract method a single step for a better chance of being correct.

If the item is $20 %$ $20%$ off, it also means you will be paying $80 %$ $80%$ to buy it. You also know the final price will be a little bit less than the original $$ 60.00$ $$60.00$

Then you can multiply $8 \times 6 = 48$ $8xx6=48$ and without a calculator arrive at the selling price of $$ 48.00$ $$48.00$ , which is a bit less than the $$ 60.00$ $$60.00$ .
