Garry purchases a pair of trousers worth $33, a t-shirt worth $16, a belt worth $21
and gets a discount of 25% on the total bill. What is the total cost incurred by
Garry?

Answer 1

Answer:

Garry incurred a total of $77.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The dude purchased two trousers, a t-shirt and a belt, thus the total purchase cost = 2*$33 + $16 + $21 = $103.00

He recieved a 25% waiver-off on the total bill, that is, the price he paid = $103 - 0.25*$103 =$103 - $25.75 = $77.25

Answer 2

Given: Cost of the pair of trousers = $33

Cost of the t-shirt =$16

Cost of the belt = $21

Percentage of discount on the total bill = 25%

To find: The total cost incurred by Garry

Solution: The total bill including all the items Garry bought

= $33 + $16 + $21

= $70.

Now we need to calculate the amount of discount he got on the marked price.

Discount = 25/100 × $70 = 1/4 × $70 = $17.5

Therefore, the total cost incurred by him

= $70 - $17.5

= $52.5

Answer: $52.5
