Question

A hammock originally sold for $59.25. It is now on sale for 1/5 off. Maurice also uses a coupon to get an additional 5% off the discounted price.
What is the final price of the hammock?

$23.70

$45.03

$47.40

Or $42.40 ?

Answer 1

Answer:

$45.03

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply $59.25 by 20%, which is 1/5, and you get $11.85.

59.25 - 11.85 = 47.40

Now you multiply 5% to 47.40 and get 2.37

47.40-2.37 = 45.03
