Respuesta :
They are both correct in their computation
(28.5-28.5(.3))+.1(28.5-28.5(.3))=$21.945
28.5(.7)(1.1)=$21.945
And since they each have $22 to spend, they have enough to purchase the book.
(28.5-28.5(.3))+.1(28.5-28.5(.3))=$21.945
28.5(.7)(1.1)=$21.945
And since they each have $22 to spend, they have enough to purchase the book.
Oscar : 0.30(28.50) = 8.55....28.50 - 8.55 = 19.95...0.10(19.95) = 2....19.95 + 2 = 21.95
Kim : 0.7(28.5) = 19.95....1.10(19.95) = 21.95
They are both correct. They both have enough money to buy the book.
They each just did it a little different way. Kim, instead of taking 30% off, and subtracting it from the original price, she multiplied it by 70%...because taking 30% off is just like paying 70%....and instead of taking 10% of the discount price and adding it back to the discount price, she multiplied it by 110%....it is exactly the same thing
