- Step 1: Read the question and Assign question type! Since it's talking about discounts and sales, I'm going to say it's a Ratio and Proportions problem!

- Since it's RP I'll have to use MATH to Show my strategy! So I'll start by Making my table and Assigning my given numbers.

- $ %X 4035.00 100
- Now I can go ahead and Test a pattern. Since I have my table I can go ahead and cross multiply! Time to Help find the unknown numbers!

- But I know that 40% is the DISCOUNT, so I know that I have to subtract that from the original price. When I do that, I get answer choice C: 21.00. which makes sense because 40% is close to 50% which means it should be a little less than half off the original price.
- $ %X 4035.00 100
- 100x = 35 * 40100x = 1400100 100x = 14.00

- Lucky me! I remembered that the trunks were 40% OFF which means that I need to subtract it from the original price! But that pesky first answer choice would definitely have gotten me if I hadn't looked back at the question and wording! So DISTRACTING!
