cross multiply

V125BC [204]

Answer:

$18.36

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we have to find the cost of the cake for the customer who orders a month early.

We know that the original price of the cake is $30.

We also know that there was a 28% discount and a 15% discount added to the purchase.

Remember, You don't add discount percentages together, you discount the prices separately.

Solve:

First, apply the 28% discount.

30 · 0.28 = 8.40

30 - 8.40 = 21.60

Now apply the 15% discount to the new price.

21.60 · 0.15 = 3.24

21.60 - 3.24 = $18.36

They needed to pay $18.36 for the cake.
