Will bought a new skateboard that was on sale. The original price of the skateboard was $60. The store had marked it down by 20 percent, and Will had a 25 percent off coupon as well. Original price: $6020%20%20%20%20% $4825%25%25%25% $12$12$12What was the price of the skateboard before tax?

Answer
A
$12
B
$24
C
$36
D
$48

Explanation

First, the 20% markdown takes $12 off the original $60 price, leaving $60 − $12 = $48. The 25% coupon then takes 25% of $48, which is $12, so the skateboard costs $48 − $12 = $36 before tax. The correct choice is $36.
