Answer 1

heya..

here is your answer..

Find the price after 6% discount

6% discount = 0.06x

Price after discount = x - 0.06x = 0.94 x

Find the price after 10% discount:

10% discount = 0.1 (0.94x) = 0.094x

Price after discount = 0.94x - 0.094x = 0.846

Find the price after 15% discount:

15% discount = 0.15 (0.846x) = 0.1269x

Price after discount = 0.846x - 0.1269x = 0.7191x

Find the single discount:

discount = x - 0.7191x = 0.2809x

discount percentage = 0.2809 x 100 = 28.09%
