Question

a store raises price for a 1,260 phone by 50% and puts a 50% off sign on it, what is the final price with no tax ?

Answer 1

1260 + 50% = 1890

1890 - 50% = 945

945

Answer 2

First price increased 50%

$1,260 + $1,260*50/100 = $1,260 + $630 = $1,890​

Then discount 50%​

$1,890 - $1,890*50/100 = $1,890 - $945 = $945 This is the final price.​

ANSWER final price is $945 without taxes​
