2) Right after Christmas a store put all of its winter coats on sale for 40% off. One rack
had a sign saying, "Take an additional 30% off". Terri picks out a blue coat from this "30% off" rack. If the coat had an original price of $100.00, what will the coat now cost Terri?
(Do not include tax.) |
1. Take 40% off the price. That leaves $60
2. Now take 30% off that: $42

3) Emily Brown fills up her gas tank with premium gas at $2.25 a gallon. She pays $21.38.
Miles Brown fills up their other car with regular gas at $2.05 a gallon. He pays $21.01.
Who bought the most gas and how much more to the nearest 100th of a gallon? |
l. Compute the amount Emily bought as the amount she paid divided by the price per gallon = 9.5 gallons.
2. Compute the amount Miles bought in a similar manner =
10.25 gallons.
3. Miles bought the most gas
4. Subtract the lower amount from the upper and round to the nearest 100th of a gallon =
0.75 gallon.
