A computer is on sale for 45% off the original price of $879. If you use the store credit card, you can receive an additional 10% off of the sale price.

What is the final price of the computer if you use the store credit card?

Answer:

$395.55

Explanation:

45%+10%=55%

100%-55%=45%

Since 45% is 45/100 in fractions, use that x 879 for the final price.

45/100x879=395.55

Hope this helps! Thanks.
