Answer 1

320×.15= 48
320-48=$272
320-45=$275
so the 15% off is the better deal

Answer 2

Answer:

Budget Town Storeis selling the luggage set for the lowest price .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Budget Town Store carries a luggage set with a regular price of $320.

The luggage set is now on sale for 15% off.

15% is written in the decimal form.

$= \frac{15}{100}$

= 0.15

Sale off price = 0.15 × 320

                      = $ 48

Cost of luggage offering by Budget Town Store =  Regular price of luggage - Sale off price .

                                                                  = 320 - 48

                                                                  = $ 272

As given

Big Box Mercantile is offering a $45 mail-in rebate on this luggage set.

Cost of luggage offering by Big Box Mercantile =  Regular price of luggage -  mail-in rebate

                                                                              = 320 - 45

                                                                              = $275

Therefore the Budget Town Storeis selling the luggage set for the lowest price .
