Part A £35

Part B

60 - 10 = 50

50 x 0.7 = 35

( quick way to do percentage)

60 × 0.7 = 42

42- 10 = 32

The price is lower when the 30% is deducted first .

I think that should do it.

Answer:

Part A: Amy pays $35 for the dress

Part B: Yes, the price would be different

Explanation:

Part A:

the $10.00 coupon is applied first, and then the 30% discount would be applied to the remaining price of the dress, which is $60.00 - $10.00 = $50.00. The 30% discount is equal to 30/100 * $50.00 = $15.00.

50 - 15 = 35

Part B:

The 30% discount is equal to 30/100 * $60.00 = $18.00. So the total discount is $10.00 + $18.00 = $28.00. Therefore, the final price of the dress is $60.00 - $28.00 = $<<60-28=32.00>>32.00.

So Amy will pay $32.00 for the dress.
