You are shopping and see an item that is normally priced for $950 on sale for 20% off. However, you have a coupon for an additional 30% off. (The cashier will apply your coupon to the sale price, not the normal price.)

What is the final cost of the time (before sales tax) after the sale and coupon discounts?

Answer:

The final cost before sales tax is $475.

Explanation:

you add the 30% to the 20% and that equals 50% off. Which is half off so you have to divide $950 by 2. That equals $475. Easy :)
