Question

A digital camera costs $230. Thecamera is on sale for 30% off, and you have a couponfor an additional 15% off the sale price. Whatis the final price? (show your work)

Answer 1

First let's calculate the 30% off from the initial value of $230:

`(30)/(100)\cdot230=30\cdot2.3=69`

So the value after this discount is:

`230-69=161`

Now, calculating the 15% off from the new value, we have:

`(15)/(100)\cdot161=15\cdot1.61=24.15`

So the final price will be:

`161-24.15=136.85`

The final value is $136.85.
