Answer:

c. $25 picture frame

Explanation:

OPTIONS:

A. $30 calligraphy brush set costs 28.50

30 - 8% = 27.6 + 5% = 28.98

B. $20 paintbrush set costs $18.40

20 - 8% = 18.4 + 5% = 19.32

C. $25 picture frame costs $24.15

25 - 8% = 23 + 5% = 24.15

D. $15 scrapbook costs $14.49

15 - 8% = 16.2 + 5% = 17.01
