Answer 1

Mr. Thompson paid $56.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the concert ticket Mr. Thompson purchased originally cost $78

Using a coupon code, he received a 20% discount.

20 % of $78 = 0.2 * $78

= $15.6

The disounted price is now

$78 - $15.6

= $62.4

The website applied a 10% service fee to the discounted price.

10% of $62.4 = 0.1 * $62.4

= $6.24

Final price is:

$62.4 - $6.24

= $56.16
