Question

Lona bought two pairs of shoes from her favorite store. The regular price of each pair was $116. With the purchase of one pair of shoes, the second pair was half price. How much did Lona pay for the two pairs of shoes?

Answer 1

Since the second pair of shoes was half price, Lona paid the regular price of $116 for the first pair and $58 for the second pair (which is half of the regular price). Therefore, Lona paid a total of $174 for both pairs of shoes.
