A jacket, originally priced at $30, were marked down by 60%, then marked down by an additional 30%. What was the percentage of the total markdown?

90% because the jacket was marked down by 2 times. Once 30% off and another times is 60% off which total of 90% off. Also, it means that the new price is 10% of original price, so
$30×10%
Or
$30×0.1=$3. As a result, the jacket now costs $3( how cheap is that?). Hope it help!
