You are purchasing 2 shirts at 15.00 each and 1 pair of jeans at 30.00 each. You have a coupon for 10% off. How much is the total cost with the discount?

Answer 1

To calculate the total cost with the discount, follow these steps:

1. Calculate the cost of the shirts: \[ 2 \text{ shirts} \times 15.00 \text{ each} = 30.00 \]

2. Calculate the cost of the jeans: \[ 1 \text{ pair of jeans} \times 30.00 = 30.00 \]

3. Calculate the total cost before the discount: \[ 30.00 \text{ (shirts)} + 30.00 \text{ (jeans)} = 60.00 \]

4. Calculate the discount amount (10% of the total cost): \[ 10% \text{ of } 60.00 = 0.10 \times 60.00 = 6.00 \]

5. Calculate the total cost after applying the discount: \[ 60.00 - 6.00 = 54.00 \]

Therefore, the total cost with the discount is $54.00.
