Question

A dealer offers a computer software program whose list price is $500 at a 19% discount. She will give an extra 3% discount if paid in cash. What is the selling price if payment is made in cash?

Answer 1

Answer:the selling price if payment is made in cash is $395

Step-by-step explanation:

The list price of the computer software program is $500

A dealer offers the computer software program at a 19% discount.

She will give an extra 3% discount if paid in cash. This means that the total discount in percentage if a customer paid in cash would be

19 + 3 = 21%

The value of the discount would be

21/100 × 500 = 0.21 × 500 = $105

Therefore, the selling price if payment is made in cash would be

500 - 105 = $395
