To find the sale price of the hat, we need to calculate how much the discount will reduce the original price.
The original price of the hat is $25, and the discount is $30. However, since the discount is greater than the original price, the sale price cannot be negative. In this case, the hat would essentially be free, because you can’t give someone money for taking it.
So, if we apply the discount straightforwardly:
- Original Price: $25
- Discount: $30
We would calculate the sale price as follows:
Sale Price = Original Price – Discount
Sale Price = $25 – $30 = -$5
Since we can’t have a negative price, the effective sale price would actually be $0.
Final Sale Price: $0
