Respuesta :

Jeremy can find the cost of the sneakers by finding 15% off of $60, and then subtracting 10% from that cost.

The first thing to do is to finding 15% off of $60, this will be:

= $60 - (15% × $60)

= $60 - $9

= $51

Then, he'll now calculate 10% off the cost and this will be:

= $51 - (10% × $51)

= $51 - $5.10

= $45.90

The price paid will be $45.90.
