Answer:

Store 1 Has a better deal as your paying 1.50 less which is 50 percent off

Explanation:

Lets say a DVD costs 1.50

so if you bought 2 for the price of one it would be 1.50

3 for the price of 2 would be 3 dollars.

If you were to buy 2 CDS for the Price of 2 that would be 3 Dollars

3 CDS for the price of 3 would be 4.50

The Amount of money depends on the cost of 1 CD.

Store 1 has a 50 percent discount while Store 2 has roughly a 35 percent discount.

sorry if this was confusing^^
