Answer:

 = $ 49.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

  • Discount off retail price is 20%
  • Retail price is $55

Required to determine the amount paid

Taking the retail price as 100%

Then, amount paid will be (100 % - 10%) 90% of the retail price

Therefore;

Amount paid = 90% × $ 55

                     = 0.9 × $ 55

                     = $ 49.5

Thus, the employee paid $ 49.5 for the book.
