Question

A fountain originally costs $100, but it is on sale for 35% off. If a customer buying the fountain has a coupon for $12.00 off of any purchase, what will his final price be on the fountain?
case1 : coupon is applied before discount ...
final price = .65(88) = 57.20

case2 : coupon is applied after discount
final price = .65(100) - 12 = 53.00

You decide which case this poorly worded is.
