<h3>Answer:   98%</h3>

==================================================

Explanation:

The customer saves 15%, but still pays the remaining 85%. The two percentages add to 100%.

85% of $900 = 0.85*900 = 765

After the 15% discount is applied, the customer would pay $765

---------

Then after the sale, the price is marked up by 15%

This means we'll multiply by 1.15 to indicate a 15% increase

1.15*765 = 879.75

Notice that we don't get back to the original price (900) even though we increased by the same percentage as before. This is because 15% of a smaller number is a smaller amount; ie we have a smaller increase compared to the decrease earlier.

---------

Afterwards, divide the value 879.75 over the original price of $900

879.75/900 = 0.9775

Move the decimal point two spots to the right to end up with 97.75%

That percentage rounds to 98% when rounding to the nearest whole percent.

Now we'll continue to use the +/- 30 degree coverage for the other two cameras. The second camera is aimed at 45 degrees, so it's range of coverage is 15 degrees to 75 degrees (45 +/- 30). Notice that the range from 15 degrees to 30 degrees is covered by 2 cameras. Now the 3rd camera is pointed at -45 degrees, so its coverage is from -15 degrees to -75 degrees. It also has an overlap with the 1st camera from -15 to -30 degrees. The total coverage of all three cameras ranges from -75 degrees to 75 degrees. That means that an arc of 150 degrees in total is covered by all three cameras.</span>
