Question

Gary's Sporting Goods sold to one of its dealers a dozen sports jackets at 950 pesos each and 2 dozens of sports pants at 1,200 pesos each. The entire purchased carried with it a discount rate of 20%. Find the total net price to the dealer.

Answer 1

The total cost of one dozen sports jackets will be

`950*12=11400`

The total cost of two dozen sports pants will be

`1200*24=28800`

The total cost of the entire purchase is

`11400+28800=40200`

now, the discount given on the total transaction will be

`\text{Discount}=\text{40200}*0.2=8040`

So, the total net price to the dealer will be

`40200-8040=32160`

Therefore, the total net price is 32160 pesos.
