You can do cross multiplication:  5----40
                                                    8-----x
                                            
                                               8 x 40 = 320
                                               
                                                      x  =  320 / 5
                                                      x = 64

So 64 is your answer.

Xelga [282]

There are two ways:

1.   (42,000 * 3)/5 =

126000/5 =

25200

2.    42000/5 =

8400*3 =

25200

Now subtract 25200 from original

42000 - 25200 = 16800

You have two coupons for a store. Coupon 1 is for $10 dollars off. Coupon 2 is for 15% off. Coupon 2 is for 15% off. You can onl
patriot [66]

Answer:

Purchases greater than 66.67 dollars should use coupon 2, while purchases between 20 dollars and 66.67 should use coupon 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Coupon 1 must be used as long as those 10 dollars represent more money than 15% of coupon 2.

For example, if the purchase is the minimum of $ 20, 10 dollars represents half of the purchase, therefore in this case it is better to use coupon 1.

In this case, coupon 2 would only be a discount of 3 dollars (20 * 0.15).

So when from what value would it be better to use coupon 2, it would have to be calculated when it is worth more than 10 dollars.

10 = x * 0.15

x = 10 / 0.15

x = 66.67

That is to say that from the purchases greater than 66.67 dollars, coupon 2 would have a discount equivalent to 10 dollars or more.
