Everything Shoe offers a better incentive, and the difference in the discount amounts is $27.

Answer 1

Shoe Land BOGO Event:
Regular price of two pairs of shoes = $45 x 2 = $90
Discount on second pair = 50% of $45 = $22.50

Everything Shoe:
Discount on any pair of shoes $35 or more = 30% of $45 = $13.50

To find the difference in the discount amounts, subtract the discount from Shoe Land from the discount from Everything Shoe:
$22.50 - $13.50 = $9

Therefore, Everything Shoe offers a better incentive, and the difference in the discount amounts is $9.
