To be able to determine which among the coupon gives a lower price, let's determine what is 45% of $73 so that we could compare it with the $30 rebate. The highest amount among the two coupons will give you a lower price.

Let's determinte the 45% of 73:


\text{73 x }\frac{45\text{\%}}{100\text{\%}}\text{ }\rightarrow\text{ 73 x 0.45}
\text{ = \$32.85}

Coupon A gives you $32.85 dollar off of a $73 Jacket.

Coupon A will give you a lower price compared to Coupon B. The price of the jacket will be $2.85 lesser than using Coupon B.
