Answer: original price = p

price after first 24% discount = .75p

he second 25% discount reduces the already reduced price to .75*.75p = .5625p

So, if .5625p = 16,

p = 16/.5625 = $28.44

check:

25% off $28.44 = $21.33

25% off $21.33 = $16.00

I literally have no clue what this unit is about so help

The answer is D
if the legs are 5 and 4 cm the equation to find the hypotenuse would be 5^2+4^2=c^c
5 squared is 25 and 4 squared is 16 that gives you 41, normally you would square root the 41 but it gives you a decimal number
