Answer 1

Yes, the percent discount (18%) is the same for both levels of membership

Explanation:

1. Let's review the information provided to us to answer the question correctly:

Membership Level Individual Family

Original Price 50.00 75.00

Discounted Price 41.00 61.50

2. Is the percent discount the same for both levels of membership?

A. Let's calculate the discount for the individual membership level, this way:

Discount percent = 100 - (41/50 * 100)

Discount percent = 100 - 82

Discount percent = 18%

B. Let's calculate the discount for the family membership level, this way:

Discount percent = 100 - (61.50/75 * 100)

Discount percent = 100 - 82

Discount percent = 18%

Yes, the percent discount (18%) is the same for both levels of membership.
