A TV at an electronics store originally costs $600, but it is on sale for 30% off. If a customer buying the TV has a coupon for $35.00 off of any purchase, what will her final price be on the TV?
600 * 0.70 - 35 = ____
the answer is 331
385
To find the final price of the TV after applying the discount and the coupon, follow these steps:
1. Start with the original price of the TV, which is $600.
2. Calculate the discount amount by finding 30% of $600. To do this, multiply $600 by 0.30: $600 x 0.30 = $180. So, the discount amount is $180.
3. Subtract the discount amount from the original price to get the discounted price. $600 - $180 = $420. Therefore, the TV is now priced at $420.
4. Apply the coupon by subtracting its value from the discounted price. $420 - $35 = $385.
Therefore, the final price of the TV, after applying the 30% discount and the $35.00 coupon, will be $385.
