Answer:
70% off
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate both these deals, then figure out which costs less.
1. 70% off
- (70% = .70)
- 70% of 998.97 = .70 * 998.97 = $699.279 is the discount
- Subtract this from 998.97: 998.97 - 699.279 = $299.691
2. $650 off
- Subtract 650 from 998.97: 998.97 - 650 = $348.97
This makes sense, because 650 is 65% of the original cost, which is less than 70%!
