Answer:
45 - 43.7 = $1.3
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Kohl’s is selling the speaker for $60.00. Mrs. House has a Friends and Family discount coupon for 25% off.
This means that the amount that he would have to pay would be the cost of the speaker - 25% of this cost and multiplied by 100. It becomes
60 - (25/100 × 60) = 60 - 15 = $45
So she would be paying $45 at Kohl
b) Target purchased the speaker for $38.00 and marked it up by 15% to sell in the store. The price that she will pay at Target would be the sum of the price at which Target purchased it + 15% of this price. It becomes
38 + (15/100 × 38) = 38 + 5.7 = 43.7
So she would be paying $43.7 at Target.
c) she would get the best deal at Target because it is cheaper there. She would be saving
45 - 43.7 = $1.3
