Geri used coupons at the grocery store and received a discount of $40.94. Once her discount was subtracted, the final cost of her purchases was $122.80. What was the approximate percent decrease in the price of her groceries due to the coupons?

Respuesta :

Step-by-step explanation:

Price after discount = 122.80

Discount = 40.94

So, amount before discount = 122.80 + 40.94 = 163.74

[tex]decrease[/tex] [tex]in[/tex] [tex]price[/tex] = [tex]\frac{discount}{original price}[/tex]   x 10

= [tex]\frac{40.94}{163.74} (100)[/tex]

= 0.25

= 0.25 x 100

= 25%
