Answer:

$39.60

Step-by-step explanation:

We are finding 66 - 40%

66 less 40% = 60% of 66

60% of 66 is the price of the item now.

Convert 60% to decimal form by dividing by 100.

60%/100 = 0.60

Multiply the decimal form by 66

66 X 0.6 = 39.60

Since we are dealing with money, keep 2 decimal places, even if the last digit is 0.

The price of the item now is $39.60.
