Answer 1

I don’t have the actual example text, so I can’t be certain. Could you paste the first and second examples (or a picture)?

My best guess from the answer choices:
- Q1: C — d = the original price (because the expressions include terms like 0.75d, which looks like “75% of the original price”).
- Q2: C — d + 3.25 - 1.25 + 0.75d + 3.25 - 1.25 + 0.75 (matches combining original-price and 0.75·original-price plus the listed fees/discounts).
- Q3: C — w - 2 - 3 - 0.5 (a single compact expression subtracting the listed amounts).

If you post the example statements I’ll confirm or correct these.
