Problema Solution
Jessica is shopping for a coat and finds one that is on sale for 30% off. It is regularly priced at $80. Dawa tells her that she saw the same coat for $80 in another store, but it was 20% off plus an additional 10% off. Will Jessica save money by going to the other store or is Dawa just messing with her head?
Answer provided by our tutors
regular price = $80
30% off price = 0.70*80 = $56
20% off + 10% off = 0.90*0.80*80 = $57.6
Jessica will not save money by going to the other store.
