The department store sells logo t-shirts at an original price of $12.50. Every month that a t-shirt doesn’t sell, the store reduces the price by 25%. Brianna calculated the price after two reductions:

12 dollars and 50 cents minus (12 dollars and 50 cents) (0.25) minus (12 dollars and 50 cents) (0.25) = 6 dollars and 25 cents

What is Brianna’s error?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Brianna subtracted $12.50, even though you are not supposed to do that to find the price. You have to subtract $6.50, not $12.50.

The final answer is $7.04 because you subtract two initial prices.

Hope this helps you!
