Answer:

Store B

Explanation:

Store A the price would be about $120.60

Store B price would be about $99

To find store a price, you first find the discount, so

0.33 x 180 = 59.40

Then subtract this from the original price to know the total after the discount

180-59.40=120.60

Do the same thing with the other Store

110 x 0.10 = 11

110-11=99

Answer: Store B

Step-by-step explanation:

180 / 3 = 60. 180 - 60= $120. Store A cost is $120.

110 * 0.9 = $99. Store B's cost is $99.
