Answer:
20% discount
Step-by-step explanation:
The price this weekend is 10% off the reduced price $144.95. She'll pay 90% of the reduced price. This makes the further reduced price as 0.90(144.95) = 130.455. To find the total percent off write a proportion.
[tex]\frac{x}{100}=\frac{130.455}{162.95}[/tex]
Solve for x by cross multiplying numerator and denominator of each fraction.
162.95(x) = 130.455(100)
162.95x = 13045.5
x = 80.06
This means she'll pay 80% of the original price and not pay 20%. The total discount is 20% off.
