Answer:
p - p(.60)
Step-by-step explanation:
to find 60% of p you turn 60% into a decimal, which is .60, next you multiply .60 by p which will give you 60% off of p,
finally you take the total which is p and subtract off the discount which is .60p, thus p-p(.60)
also... another way to solve this is that if you are getting 60% off that means you are paying 40% of the price, thus you could just multiply p(.40) to get the amount the person would actually pay
