The coupon which gives Hideki a better deal is Coupon 2: as the total cost is: $27

The total cost of coupon 1 will be; $28.8

The total cost of coupon 2 will be; $27

For Coupon 1; Buy 1 get one 40% off.

Total cost = $18 + 60% ($18)

Total cost = $18 + $10.8.

Total cost = $28.8

For Coupon 2; 25% off entire purchase

Total cost = 75% ($18 + $18)

Total cost = 75% ($36)

Total cost = $27

:D Your Welcome!
