Exercise 1.
Use models, such as 10 × 10 grids, ratio tables, tape diagrams, or double number line diagrams, to solve the following situation.
Priya is doing her back-to-school shopping. Calculate all of the missing values in the table below, rounding to the nearest penny, and calculate the total amount Priya will spend on her outfit after she receives the indicated discounts.
Answer:
What is the total cost of Priya’s outfit?
Answer:
Shirt 25% = \(\frac{25}{100}=\frac{1}{4}=\frac{11}{44}\) The discount is $11. The cost of the shirt is $33 because $44 – $11 = $33.
Pants 30% = \(\frac{30}{100}=\frac{15}{50}\) The original price is $50. The price of the pants is $35 because $50 – $15 = $35.
Shoes 15% = \(\frac{15}{100}=\frac{3}{20}=\frac{9}{60}\) The original price is $60. The cost of the shoes is $51 because $60 – $9 = $51.
Necklace 10% = \(\frac{1}{10}=\frac{2}{20}\) The discount is $2. The cost of the necklace is $18 because $20 – $2 = $18.
Sweater 20% = \(\frac{20}{100}=\frac{1}{5}=\frac{7}{35}\) The original price is $35. The cost of the sweater is $28 because $35 – $7 = $28.
The total outfit would cost the following: $33 + $35 + $51 + $18 + $28 = $165.

Eureka Math Grade 6 Module 1 Lesson 27 Exit Ticket Answer Key
Jane paid $40 for an item after she received a 20% discount. Jane’s friend says this means that the original price of the item was $48.
a. How do you think Jane’s friend arrived at this amount?
Answer:
Jane’s friend found that 20% of 40 is 8. Then she added $8 to the sale price: 40 + 8 = 48. Then she determined that the original amount was $48.
b. Is her friend correct? Why or why not?
Answer:
Jane’s friend was incorrect. Because Jane saved 20%, she paid 80% of the original amount, so that means that 40 is 80% of the original amount.
The original amount of the item was $50.
