Answer:

Jeremy find the cost of the sneakers by solving for the values of the 10% in dollars and subtracting the dollar amount from the cost of the sneaker

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

cost of sneakers= $60

Required

the cost of the sneaker after the two discounts

Actually, the two percents given are the discount of the sale.

the first discount is

15%= 15/100*60

=0.15*60

=$9

The second is 10% coupon

10/100*60

=0.1*60

=$6

The total discounts = 9+6= $15

The cost of the sneakers= 60-15= $45

Jeremy find the cost of the sneakers by solving for the values of the 10% in dollars and subtracting the dollar amount from the cost of the sneaker
