Answer:

(a) It costs $55 at Happy Fruiterer

(b) It will cost $49.64

(c) It is cheaper at Happy Fruiterer the second week

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Fruitz shop sells as 10% less than Happy Fruiterer at $50

10% more of $50 = 50 × 10/100 + 50

= $5 + $50 = $55

(a) n Kg of grapes will cost $55 at Happy Fruiterer

(b) if Happy Fruits discounts $55 by 5%, we will have

55 × 5/100 = 2.75

that is $55 - $2.75 = $52.25

If it is discounted further at 5% more the following week, we will have

$52.25 × 5/100 = $2.6125

≈ $2.61

Then the new price for the 2nd week is $52.25 - $2.61

= $49.64

(c) at the second wee of discounting, Fruitz shop still sells at $50 will Happy Fruiterer now see at $49.64. Therefore, it is cheaper at Happy Fruiterer
