Answer 2

A and C are the answers under 20. For A, if you multiply 29.99*0.65 (or multiply 29.99 * 0.35 and subtract that answer from 29.99) the answer is less than 20. You would do the same for all four answers to see which two are below 20. For C, multiply 49.99*0.60 (or the longer way is 49.99*0.40, then subtract that answer from 49.99.

A) 29.99*0.65=19.49
B) 39.99*0.55=21.99
C) 49.99*0.40=19.99
D) 59.99*0.60=35.99
