Let's use 50 cents as the price of the item
Two for the price of one = $.50 for two (or $.25 each)
Three for the price of two = $1.00 for 3 or approximately $.33 each
Buy one get 25% off the 2nd means $.50 + (.125 which is 25% of $.50) for a total of $.625 or about $.63 ($.315 or about $.32 each)
Buy Two get 50% off the 2nd means $.50 for the first and $.25 for the 2nd for a total of $.75 or $.375 - about $.38 each
We can see that two for the price of one is the best value since you save $.25 off of $.50 (that's half) and that buy two get 50% off the 2nd is the smallest price reduction since the $.50 item only goes down to $.38 or twelve cents off.
This would work no matter what the cost of the item. The savings would still be in the same proportions.

Answer:
The value of x is 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The stage is rectangular in shape.
The formula for area of a rectangle is:
Length × Width
Length = 24 feet
Width = 4x + 4 feet
Hence:
384 = (4x + 4) × (24)
384 = 96x + 96
Collect like terms
384 - 96 = 96x
288 = 96x
x = 288/96
x = 3
The value of x is 3
