Answer:
<em>The total percentage discount was 19%</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Percentages</u>
Suppose the original price of the shirt was x.
A discount of 10% reduces the price by:
10*x/100 = 0.1x
Thus, the discounted price is:
x - 0.1x = 0.9x
The second discount reduces the price by:
10*0.9x/100 = 0.09x
The new discounted price is:
0.9x - 0.09x = 0.81x
With respect to the original price, the last discounted price has been discounted by:
x - 0.81x = 0.19x
This means the total percentage discount was 0.19*100 = 19%.
The total percentage discount was 19%
