A pair of boots was originally priced at $200. The store put them on sale for 25% off. A month later, the boots were reduced an additional 50% off the previous sale price. What is the price now?

$75

Step-by-step explanation:

$28.83

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use:   and then use cross multiplication.

Let's solve the first sale

We have:

percent = 25%

whole = $200

we want to solve for "part". Lets set the equation up before we plug anything in

now plug everything in:

part = $50

what does this mean?

Well it actually means $50 is the amount of money we take away from our original price of $200.

So we subtract that from our total.

$200 - $50 = $150

Next we will do the second sale.

percent = 50%

whole = $150

Use the same equation as above:

part = $75
