With these, always write out the multiples first.
Start like this:
(assume one of the factors is negative)
1 and 1120
2 and 560
4 and 280
5 and 224
7 and 160
8 and 140
10 and 112
14 and 80
16 and 70
20 and 56
28 and 40
32 and 35
from those, the obvious choice is the one with a difference of three. In this case, 32 and 35, because -32 + 35 equals 3.
Answer:
mean = 33/6 =5.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Morgan should first take the 40% off then apply the $15 coupon
Lets say her total was $150.
If you take the 40% off first, you get $90
150 * .6 = 90 (since you are taking off 40% you are still paying the rest of the 60% so you can just save extra steps by multiplying by .6 and not .4)
Now you subtract 15 from that value.
90 - 15 = 75 If Morgan takes the 40% off first and then applies the $15 dollar coupon, she has to pay $75.
If she applies the $15 coupon first, her total before the 40% is $135
150 - 15 = 135
The total will come out to be $81
$135 * .6 = 81
If Morgan takes the discount first before applying the coupon she has to pay less and saves the most money.
