20% is 1/5. 125 times 1/5 is 25.

So the tip is 25 dollars.

That's the way, uh huh, uh huh, I like it, uh huh, uh huh!
Write how can you find the sale price of 25% off of $125?
1     Find the percentage's fraction out of 100.
1a   25%=25/100
2     Reduce the fraction.
2a    25/100=1/4
3      Multiply the price times the reduced fraction.
3a    $125*1/4=$31.25
4        Subtract the product from the price.
4a      $125-$31.25=$93.75

So the sale price is $93.75.

I feel that the most helpful thing so far to help us prepare for TAKS was the monster multiplication game. That's because it comes with a reward at the end. You get to customize your very own monster!
