A department store is having a 55% off sale on all sport coats if you have a coupon for an additional 10% off any item how much would a $230 sport coat cost

Respuesta :

Answer:

$93.15 will be the cost of the sport coat.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Price of a sport coat = $230

Sale on all sport coats = 55%

So, discount sport coat as per sale:

[tex]\$230 \times 55\%\\\Rightarrow $230 \times \dfrac{55}{100}\\\Rightarrow \$126.5[/tex]

So, discounted price offered to the customer = $230 - $126.5 = $103.5

It is given that the customer has an coupon of additional discount of 10% off:

So, he will have an additional discount of :

$103.5 [tex]\times[/tex] 10

[tex]\Rightarrow 103.5 \times \dfrac{10}{100}\\\Rightarrow \$10.35[/tex]

So, final cost for the customer of the product with price $230:

$103.5 - $10.35 = $93.15
