Calculation Without DistributionYou want to buy three books that are on sale at 20% off. The original prices of the books are $2.50, $4.95, and $6.00. How much will you save?

Respuesta :

Original price of 1st book = 2.50

After off of 20%  [tex]\frac{20}{100}\times2.50=0.50[/tex]

Price becomes = [tex]2.50-0.50=2.00[/tex]

Original price of 2nd book = 4.95

After 20% off [tex]\frac{20}{100}\times4.95=0.99[/tex]

Price becomes = [tex]4.95-0.99=3.96[/tex]

Original price of 3rd book = 6

After 20% off [tex]\frac{20}{100}\times6=1.2[/tex]

Price becomes = [tex]6-1.2=4.8[/tex]

Hence money saved will be = [tex]0.50+0.99+1.20=2.69[/tex]
