Question

-thanks

Answer 1

You can figure these out
CostA=.70*15.98
CostB-.60*18.50

Answer 2

just do the price,
in BRAND A's case 15.98
times the discount- 30%...move the decimal back two places...turns into .30

15.98 X .30 = your answer

Answer 3

That is the discount, not the price. See my post.
