Answer:

The new price is 66% off the original not 75% off

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original price

First take 60 percent off

x - x*60% = new price

x- .60x = .40x

The new price is .40x

Then take 15 % off

(.40x) - (.40x)*15%

.40x - .40x*.15

.40x - .06x

.34x

100 -.34 =.66

The new price is 66% off the original not 75% off

= 4/4 - 3

= 1 - 3   (note the division 4/4 is done first according to the order of operations rule)

= -2      answer
