1. Suppose you want to find 35% of the number 120. Explain two different methods you could use to solve this problem. Show that with both methods, you arrive at the same answer.

2. You purchase an item that costs $35. With sales tax, your total comes to $36.75. Then you realize you have a $10 discount coupon. How much will be your new total, including tax? Explain.

3. Write a real-world scenario that could be solved using the simple interest equation I = prt. Then use the equation to find the solution to the real-world problem.
