Answer 1

You would add up the percentages first, which would bring everything up to 35%. You would then take the original cost of the item, which is $30 and multiple it by the 35%. 

The equation would look like...

30 x .35 = 

This will give you $10.50, which isn't the final answer.

You would then subtract 10.50 from the $30 that was asked for at the beginning by the retailer. 

Your final answer is $19.50. :) Which isn't a bad deal if I say so myself.
