Staff at a law enforcement training academy purchases badges at $32 each for all the graduates of the academy. The last training class graduated 25 new officers. What is the total amount of money the academy staff will spend for the badges for these new officers, if the badge vendor provided the Academy a 20% discount on each badge?
  1. $800
  2. $790
  3. $ 640
  4. $16
  5. None of these
Explanation
Answer: C - $32 x 25 = 800; 800 x .20 = 160; $800 - 160 = $640. The second way to calculate the problem is, $800 x .80 = $640.
