No, it isn't!
first, the discount is 20 percent of 18 dollars, that is 18/5=3.6
this means that during the first week the prize is 18-3.6=14.4
now, the prize is marked up 20 % of 14.4! this is 2.88
so the prize later will be 14.4+2.88, that is 17.28, not 18
what is relevant here is what a number is a percent OF
The first step to solving this is converting these mixed numbers into improper fractions. You would do that by multiplying the denominator by the whole number and adding the numerator to that number; this number replaces the numerator. It would look something like this:
1 8/10 --> 18/10
2 2/5 --> 12/5
Now, to subtract the second fraction from the first one, the denominators of both fractions must be the same. We can make them the same by multiplying the second fraction by 2:
12/5 * 2/2 = 24/10
Now we can set up the equation as:
18/10 - 24/10 = -6/10 --> -3/5
The answer is negative 3/5.
I hope this helps.
