Sam wants to buy a dress as a birthday present for his niece. The regular price of the dress is $45, and he can use either a 25% off the regular price coupon, or $10 off any purchase of $30 or more coupon. Find the discount amount of the better incentive. Round the answer to two decimal places.(1 point)

Question

The discount amount of the better incentive is $
.

Answer 1

To find the discount amount of the better incentive, we need to compare the two options:

Option 1: 25% off the regular price ($45) = $45 * 0.25 = $11.25

Option 2: $10 off any purchase of $30 or more

Since the regular price of the dress is $45, the second option is applicable.
Therefore, the discount amount of the better incentive is $10.
