Answer: the second shop gives a better value.
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of T-shirts that Fred wants to buy is 2.
The first shop sells them for £11.45 each and it is buy one get one half price. This means that the total amount that he would pay for the 2 shirts is
11.45 + 11.45/2 = £17.175
The second shop sells them for £10.16 each and there is 20% off sale. The amount off the cost of both shirts is
20/100 × (10.16 × 2) = £4.064
This means that the amount that he would pay for the 2 shirts is
20.32 - 4.064 = £16.256
Therefore, since £16.256 is lower than £17.175, it means that the second shop gives a better value.
