Question

the original price of a ski jacket was $290 it was on sale at a 25% off discount Arianna had a coupon for a additional 10% off the sale price what price did she pay for the ski jacket?

Answer 1

The price she paid is 289.65.

Explanation:

First you take the numbers you have OR price: $290; 25% and 10%. When looking at this when you have the words like Discount and Off (the sales price) your most likely to subtract from the original price the ski jacket was. Turn 25% and 10% into decimals which makes them 0.25 and 0.10. Then you add those together to get 0.35. Then lastly you subtract that from the original price, then you get your answer of 289.65.
