A tent originally costs $450, but it is on sale for 22% off. If a customer buying the tent has a coupon for $20.00 off of any purchase, what will her final price be on the tent?

Find 22% of $450: you can use the cross-multiply way to find this. (Comment back if you want me to show you how)
That is $99
Subtract 20 because of the coupon, so you should be $79 (if tax isn't included)

Answer:Final price on the tent is $331.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Cost price of a tent = $450

Rate of discount = 22%

Amount of discount is given by


(22)/(100)* 450\\\\=0.22* 450\\\\=\$99

Amount becomes


450-99\\\\=\$351

Amount off on coupon =$20.00

Final price on the tent is given by


351-20\\\\=\$331

Hence, Final price on the tent is $331.
