Question 3 • POP Financial Math 26/27

The music store is having a 15% off sale on all classical music cds. Lyell has a coupon for 20% off any classical music cd. How much will Lyell save on a classical music cd that has a price of $23.99?

Answer
A
$7.20
B
$7.68
C
$8.40
D
$9.60

Explanation

The 15% sale reduces the $23.99 price to $23.99 × 0.85 = $20.3915. The 20% coupon then saves 20% of that reduced price: $20.3915 × 0.20 = $4.0783, and the sale already saved $23.99 × 0.15 = $3.5985. Together, Lyell saves about $7.68, choice $7.68.
