Answer:

a. $38.25, b.$40.5, c. Trey

Step-by-step explanation:

A percentage can also be represented as a proportion out of 1; for example, 30 percent is .30, and 100 percent will be 1.00.

a. If Trey is paying 15 percent off a price, that means he is still paying 85 percent, and recall what I said earlier, about 85 percent is a .85 proportion. So now we multiply the price by the proportion he is paying .85*45 = $38.25

b. We want to do the same process we did in part a. So we have 1 - .25 =.75 to get the proportion of the original price Evan will be paying. Now we multiply .75*54 = $40.50.

c. Trey got the better deal because he ended up paying less; hence $38.25 is less than that of $40.50
