Question

Claire buys a jacket that originally cost $76. The price is marked down 25% for sale, and Claire has a coupon to further reduce the markdown price by 10%. How much does clear pay for the jacket

Answer 1

Answer: 51.30

Explanation:

First times 76 by.25

$76.00 times .25% = $19, so then subtract 19 from 76.

$76 - $19 = $56, then multiply 56 by .10

$56 times .10% = $5.60 then, subtract 5.60 from 56

$56 - $5.60 = $51.30 Your answer is 51.30

Hope this wasn’t to confusing!

$76 times .25% = $19
