Question

Light bulbs usually cost $2. They are on sale for 0.50 of the regular price. What is the sale price? Is this a better price than if the sale price were 0.35 of the regular price?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Usual (Original / Regular) Price = $2

Sale Price = 0.50 of Original Price

Sale Price = 0.5 × 2

=> Sale Price = $1

_______________________________

If the Sale were 0.35 of Original Price, then

Sale Price = 0.35 × $2

=> Sale Price = $0.7

_______________________________

This means that it not a better price than if the sale was 0.35 of regular price.
