Question

Dima called her friend to tell her that she saved 30% on her new skirt at a discount store. Her friend told her that she could have gotten a better deal at a different store that was advertising a sale of 1/3 off all clothing. If the original price of Dima’s skirt was $54, how much more could she have saved at the store her friend suggested?

A) $1.11
B) $1.80
C) $36.00
D) $37.80

Answer 1

54*0.3 (30%) is 16.2
54*(1/3) is 18
18-16.2 is 1.8 or $1.80

Answer 2

tbh i Would prolly go B,
