Question

You are purchasing 2 shirts at $10.00 (each) and 1 pair of jeans at $35.00 (each). You have a coupon for 10% off. How much is the total cost with the discount?

$49.50

$5.50

$60.50

$55.00

Answer 1

49.50 because you take 35 plus 20 which equals 55, then subtract 10% and you get 49.5  so I then added a zero and got 49.50

Answer 2

2 x 10 = 20 + 35 = 55 x .10 = 5.5

55 - 5.5 = 49.50
