Question

Adam plans to choose a video game from a section of the store where everything is 75% off. He writes the expression d−0.75d to find the sale price of the game if the original price is d dollars.

Rena correctly writes another expression, 0.25d, that will also find the sale price of the game if the original price is d dollars.

Use the drop-down menus to explain what each part of Adam's and Rena's expressions mean.

i have no idea what im doing

Answer 1

Adam- d is how many dollars the game was, 0.75d is 75% off, hes subtracting the amount discounted from the original price

Rena- d is still how many dollars the game was, but she's finding the amount the game will cost with the discount

they're both correct, Adam just has more steps to find the price
