Question

1. You have a coupon for an additional 25% off the price of any sale item at a store. The store has put a robotics kit on

sale for 15% off the original price of $40. What is the price of the robotics kit after both discounts?

Answer 1

The price of the robotics kit after both discounts is $25.50.

Explanation:

The original price of the robotics kit is $40. A 15% discount on this amount is $6, so the sale price of the robotics kit is $40 - $6 = $<<40-6=34>>34.

An additional 25% discount on this sale price is $8.50, so the final price of the robotics kit is $34 - $8.50 = $<<34-8.5=25.50>>25.50.

Therefore, the price of the robotics kit after both discounts is $25.50.
