Question

After training Naruto went to a ramen shop for dinner. Since Naruto eats ramen for lunch and dinner daily, the shopkeeper gives him a 33.33% discount. If ramen costs 45 cents, how much does Naruto spend in 15 days?

Points given: 20

Answer 1

To calculate how much Naruto spends on ramen in 15 days, we need to determine the total cost of ramen per day and then multiply it by 15.

Since Naruto receives a 33.33% discount, he pays 100% - 33.33% = 66.67% of the original price.

66.67% of 45 cents is (66.67/100) * 45 = 30 cents.

So, Naruto spends 30 cents on ramen per day.

To find out how much he spends in 15 days, we multiply the daily cost by the number of days:

30 cents * 15 = 450 cents.

Therefore, Naruto spends 450 cents, which is equivalent to $4.50, on ramen in 15 days.
