Answer:

175.5

Explanation:

260 - 25% discount is 195 because 25% is 1/4

Then you take 10% off 195 which is 19.5

Then you subtract and get 175.5

Hope this helps!!

Answer:

The answer is 175.5.

Explanation:

This is because 25% of $260 is $65. Then you must subtract that from the original price. $260 - $65 = $195. Then, it says '10% off the sale price'. The sale price is $195. 10% of this is 19.5. Finally, you subtract this from the $195, with a final amount of $175.50
