Answer: Initially it looks like Mindy is making a profit of $0.75 plus the pizza worth $12. So it is a fair deal for Mindy. Now coming to the part of the pizza shop owner, we find that he also gains extra $2.25 from this deal. So it is a fair deal for both the shop keeper and Mindy.

Answer:

Well the discount with 15% off is $2.25. Now subtract 15.00-2.25 to get 12.75. You are paying $12.75 for the discounted pizza.
