Angelina received two discounts on a $50 pair of shoes. The discounts were taken off one after the other. If she paid $30 for the shoes, what was the percent for each coupon? Is there only one way to answer?

Answer:

20% & 25% discounts

or

25% & 20% discounts

so the sequence of the discounts is different.

Answer:

30% discount and another 30%

but this is not the only possible answer, to see other answers, make sure both percentage adds up to 60%
