Answer 1

Answer:The amount that a customer with this coupon will pay is $148.3245

Step-by-step explanation:

The price at which the store purchases televisions from a factory is for $87.89 each. The store normally sells one of these televisions for 225% of the factory cost. This means that the price at which each television is sold at the store is

225/100 × 87.89 = $197.7525

The store coupon gives 25% off this selling price. The value of the coupon would be

25/100 × 197.7525 = $49.428

The amount that a customer with this coupon will pay for the television would be

197.7525 - 49.428 = $148.3245
