can i have the answer please ?
You just want the answer or would you like me to explain?
The answer is no. The sofa would be cheaper @ 25% off. Here is the reasoning... you are taking 25% off of the original price. Instead of taking off 15% of the original price and then off of the smaller number removing 10 % of that
Understand?
