    Solution:

    Paul received a coupon for 43% off one item at a clothing store

    Let "b" be the original price of item

    Given expression is:

    New price of item = b - 0.43b

    We have to equivalent expression by combining like terms

    We can combine the terms with same variable "b"

    Therefore,

    New price of item = b - 0.43b
