Question

At one store Julia save $10 with the coupon for 20% off her total purchase at another store the $24 she spent on books is 40% of her total bill how much did Julia spend it all at the two stores

Answer 1

At the first store, Julia spent 50 dollars. Since 20 percent is 100 divided by 5, you multiply the 10 dollars by 5 to get 50 dollars.

At the second store, Julia spent. Since 12 dollars is 20 percent, multiply 12 dollars by 5 to get 60 dollars.

50+60= 110. Julia spent 110 dollars altogether.
