Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of a second-hand car is $6975

($900 reduction) (15% discount) (Pay just seven-eighths)

Which of the three offers on the right is the best offer? Give a reason for your answer.

The 15% discount, because:

If $900 reduction –> 6975 – 900 = $6075

If 15% discount –> 6975 x 85/100 =$5928.75

If seven-eighths (7/8) –> 7/8 = 87.5 %, 6975 x 87.5/100 = $6103.13
