Question

An editing company charges its costumers $8.75 to rewrite one page. Each May, the company offers a discount of $1.45 per page to its loyal customers. How much will the company charge to rewrite 5 pages for a loyal customer during May? Please answer and explain step by step.

Answer 1

Normal price for 5 pages: number of pages times the price per page
(5)*($8.75) = $43.75

Discounted rate: $8.75 - $1.45 = $7.30
Discounted price for 5 pages:
(5)*($7.30) = $36.50
