Answer:

$175 off

Explanation:

Find each discount

50% off

Multiply 50% by the price of the painting

50%*333

Convert 50% to a decimal by dividing by 100, or moving the decimal place two spots to the left

50%/100=0.50

50. --> 5.0--> 0.50

0.50*333

166.5

50% off will save Lila $166.50

$175 off

$175 off will save Lila $175

Since 175 is greater than 166.5, the $175 off discount will save Lila more money
