Question

A fountain originally cost $100, but is on sale for 35% off. If a customer buying the fountain has a coupon for $12 off any purchase, what would his final price be on the fountain?

Answer 1

First let's find the percent off.

100*35% = 35
100-35 = 65

65-12 = 53

The final price would be $53. Hope this helps!

Answer 2

so your sale would be:
35/100 times 100. So it is 35 dollars off, which means the price is now 65 dollars. Then the coupon is 12 dollars off, so 65- 12 equals 53 dollars for the fountain.

$53.
