Question

PLEASE HURRY I WILL DO ANYTHING (not anything but give brain list)

Compare which is better the 50% one or this one. Another brand of sheets is on sale 30% off with a regular price of $18.00 per sheet. Which is a better deal, the previous example or this one? Explain.

Answer 1

The cost of the sheets is less for the second example, the second example is the better deal.

Consider the first example:

Here, A brand of sheets is on sale for “Buy one get one at 50% off”. If each sheet costs $18.00.

So, the value of the first sheet will be $18,

And since the other sheet is at 50% off .

That is it will be half of the original value

= 50/100 * 18

=9

Therefore, the cost of two sheets

=$18 + $9

= $27.

So, Six sheets will cost

=$27+$27+$27

= $81

Cost of six sheets will be $81

Now, consider the second example

In the second example sheets are 30% off.

So, 30% of 18

= $6.

Subtract that value from 18 and you will get $12.

So, cost of one sheet = $12.

cost of 6 sheet

= $12×6

= $72

In the first example, Six sheets costs $81, while in the second example six sheets cost $72.

Since the cost is less for the second example. So, the second example is the better deal.
