Question

Steps Jeanne has a coupon for $1.95 off a jug of name-brand laundry detergent that normally costs $14.99. The store-brand laundry detergent costs $11.53. How much will Jeanne save if she buys the store-brand detergent instead of using her coupon and buying the name-brand?

Answer 1

we can do a subtraction to calculate the savings

`14.99-11.53=3.46`

will save 3.46 buying store-brand laundry detergent

and your savings from using the coupon are 1.95

We make a subtraction between the savings to know how much you save more with one method than with the other

`3.46-1.95=1.51`

she save $1.51 more buying store-brand
