Question

A clothing store is having a sale in which everything is 10% off. A shirt's original price is $27. A customer uses a coupon for $5 off after the sale price. How much did the customer save? A. $3.92 B. $7.20 C. $7.70 D. $19.30

Answer 1

Answer:

C. $7.70

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to calculate the 10% of the price and subtract that from the price to find the amount of the discount:

$27*10%=$2.7

Now, you can add the amount of the discount plus the coupon to find the amount that the customer saved:

$5+$2.7=$7.7

According to this, the answer is that the customer saved: C. $7.70
