Answer 3

Maria and Edwin have $23.00 each to spend at a book fair, where all students receive a 25% discount. They both want to purchase a copy of the same book, which normally sells for $26.50 plus 10% sales tax. To check if she has enough to purchase the book, Maria takes 25% of $26.50 and subtracts that amount from the normal price. She takes 10% of the discounted selling price and adds it back to find the purchase amount. Edwin takes 75% of the normal purchase price and then computes 110% of the reduced price. Is Maria correct? Is Edwin correct? Do they have enough money to purchase the book?

Answer 4

Edwin is correct coz in the sale is of 25% off on the normal price so we have to sub. 25out of 100% and find out the discounted price..now we have to put a 10% service tax on the discounted price so multiply it with 110% so Edwin is correct
