Question

Grace bought a new sweater on sale for 20% off the original price and an additional 15% off the discounted price. If the sweater originally cost $60, what was the final cost that Grace paid for the discounted sweater?

Answer 1

$40.80.

Explanation:

60 - 0.20*60

= 60 - 12

= $48

48 - 48*0.15

= 48 - 7.20

= $40.80.
