Answer:

I would rather pay the 250 with the 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

I chose that one because it would be 187.50$ and the other one was 210$ (300 with 30% off) i got the final prices by doing 250•0.25=62.5 then 250-62.5=187.50 and for the second one 300•0.30=90 then 300-90=210.

What i did was find the percentage that was taken out of the original price to find the final price.
