Answer:
(A) Your friend will save $282.
(B) Your friend will get 23.5% off the original price of the mattress.
Step-by-step explanation:
We first need to find out the price of the mattress after the 15% discount. Our first step is to find what 15% of 1,200 is. We can do this by multiplying the two numbers.
1,200 x 15% -----> 1,200 x 0.15= 180.
15% of $1,200 is $180.
Next subtract $180 from $1,200, which equals $1,020. We can now apply the 10% off internet coupon.
1,020 x 10% ------> 1,020 x 0.10= 102.
10% of $1,020 is $102.
Next we subtract $102 from $1,020 and we get $918, the final price of the discounted mattress.
We subtract to see how much money the friend saved.
$1,200 - $918= $282.
We can get the percentage by dividing $282 by $1,200.
282 / 1200= 0.235 decimal form ----> 23.5%
