Question

A stereo was originally priced at 75.50. it was marked down 24%. a store had a big sale of 60% off the lowest marked price. what was the final price of the stereo

Answer 1

We can calculate the price with both sales by multiplying the 75.5 units of money by both percentages (to multiply them, we divide them by 100 first):

75.5 * 0.24 * 0.6
`\approx.` 10.8
