B. $49.00
C. $52.00
D. $54.00

Answer 1

a

Explanation:

18$

Answer 2

$54

Explanation:

If there is a sale for 1/4 off we need to take 1/4 of $80 (.25*80) to find out how much we have to take off of the jacket for the sale.

1/4 of 80 is 20

Then we have to subtract 20 from 80 since we get $20 off not the jacket for $20

80-20=60

Now we take 10% of 60 (.1*60) which is $6 so again we subtract 60-6 and get $54 for the jacket

Let me know if that was confusing in the comments and i can try to explain
