25% is equivalent to 1/4.
So the ornament is $16.00-3/4% off=15.88
-3/4%=0.12 So, $16.00-0.12=15.88
The ornament costs $15.88.

Answer:
$82 sundaes
$74 banana split
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one :
Given data
Cost of sundaes =$2 each
Cost of banana split =$3 each
Let the number of sundaes bought be x
And the number of banana split bought be y
The total is x+y
The shop sold 8 more Sundaes than the Banana split
x=8+y—-------1
Total amount made = $156
Therefore the system of equation for the situation is
x=8+y----—----------1
2x+3y=156---------2
But x=8+y
8+y+y=156
8+2y=156
2y=156-8
2y=148
Divide both sides by 2
y=148/2
y=74
On That day they sold $74 banana split
And also they sold x=8+74=$82 sundaes
Because 21 is more than 1
