Answer:
The best deal is the middle one.
Step-by-step explanation:
35.95 with a 20% discount.
You can do this the straight forward way. Take 20% 35.95
20/100 * 35.95 = 7.19
Now subtract this from 35.95
35.95 - 7.19 = 28.76
15/100 * 29.75 = 4.46
29.75 - 4.46 = 25.28
25% * 38.49 = 9.62
38.49 - 9.62 = 28.86
The third option would be correct.
Hope this helps! ;)
