The selling price of an item is ​$ 440 After 6 months of not​ selling, it is marked down by 30​%. After another 6 months of not​ selling, it is further marked down by 10​%. Find the sale price after both markdowns.

Answer 1

440...marked down by 30% means u pay 70%
70% of 440 = 0.70(440) = 308

308 ..marked down by 10% means u pay 90%
90% of 308 = 0.90(308) = 277.20 <== price after markdowns
