No. Because 33 $ is the money deducted from the 60 $. Dawn bought everything for less than 60 $.
So, if Dawn purchases everything on the rack with a 30% discount and 15% coupon the total will indeed make 45%.
We have to take 100% - 45%= 55% to know the reduction number. Let's proceed to the calculations now.
100%= 60 $
1%=60/100
55%= 60/100 × 55 = 33 $
Now <u>NOTE</u><u>;</u><u> </u><u>33</u><u> </u><u>$</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>money</u><u> </u><u>reduced</u><u> </u><u>from</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>60</u><u> </u><u>$</u><u>.</u><u> </u><u>So</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>logically</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>33</u><u> </u><u>$</u><u> </u><u>isn't</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>amount</u><u> </u><u>which</u><u> </u><u>Dawn</u><u> </u><u>purchased</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>whole</u><u> </u><u>rack</u><u>. </u>
To find the amount at which she purchased everything, we need to do,
60 $ - 33 $ = 27 $
Answer:
The answer would be A. 1 1/5
48/40 = 1 8/40
1 8/40 Simplify to 1 1/5
Hope this helps!
To Find :-
