- We are given that the shirt is on sale for 25% off and the original price is $50.
- Draw a strip divided into 100 equal parts.
- Identify the whole: The original price is $50.
- Shade in 25 parts of the strip
- Label the shaded parts: 25%
- Use the strip model to find the part or whole: 25% of $50 is $12.5
- The sale price of the shirt is $50 – $12.5 = $37.5.
