Question

Fernando has been saving money to buy an e-book reader. A store has just marked down the price of its readers by 40%. Each reader comes in with a mail-in rebate for $25. The original price of the e-book reader was $150.

What will the final price of the reader be? Show your work.

Answer 1

The answer would be $149.6

Explanation:

150-0.4=149.6

Answer 2

Answer: 65

Explanation:

First you have to multiply. 150 x 0.4 = 60

Then you have to subtract 60 from 150, you get 90. Then subtract 25. 90 - 25 = 65.
