Question

Two sporting goods stores are having discount sales on basketballs. • At one store, a basketball is on sale for 20% off the regular price of $24.95. • At the other store, the same kind of basketball is on sale for 25% off the regular price of $25.80. What is the difference between the sale prices of the two stores?

Answer 1

24.95 - 0.20(24.95) = 24.95 - 4.99 = 19.96

25.80 - 0.25(25.80) = 25.80 - 6.45 = 19.35

19.96 - 19.35 = 0.61 <=== the difference
