Question

You are buying an Apple Watch for $100. The watch is currently 75% off and you have a 25% off coupon! Will you get the item for free? Explain your thinking.​

Answer 1

No

Explanation:

Because the watch is selling for 75% off, the discounted price will be

`100(1-75\%)\\=100*0.25\\=25`($)

Then, when you apply your coupon, the new cost will be

`25(1-25\%)\\=25*0.75\\=18.75`($)

So you'll still pay $18.75.
