Question

Kyndal wants to buy a lamp that

originally cost $82, but went on sale for
20% off. The store is having an
additional sale that is 40% off the sale
price. What is the price of the lamp?

Answer 1

$39.36

Explanation:

Since its 20% off that means we still have a remaining 80% so first multiply 0.8 to the 82

82x0.8= 65.6

Since there is a additional 40% off multiply by 0.4 to get the discount amount

65.6x0.4= 26.24

Subtract the discount from the price

65.6-26.24= 39.36
