Answer: You need to pay $119.98 for three pairs of jeans.

Explanation:

Market price of 1 jeans = $49.99

Discount percent = 20% = 0.20

Market price for 3 jeans = 3 x ($49.99)

= $ 149.97

Discount price = 20% of (Market price for 3 jeans )

= .0.20 x ($149.97)

= $ 29.99

Price of 3 jeans after discount = (Market price for 3 jeans ) - ( Discount price)

= $ (149.97 - 29.99)

= $ 119.98

Hence, you need to pay $119.98 for three pairs of jeans.
