Respuesta :

$35.52



Step-by-step explanation:


Answer:

The phone price is $69 less than the original price.

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of a  phone =  $245

It is now on sale for [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] off the original price.

[tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] of the 245 =  $49.00

The sale price of a phone   = $245 - $49 = $196.00

April has a coupon for an extra 10% off the sale price.

10% of 196.00 = 0.10 × 196.00 = $19.6

After redeeming the 10% off coupon the price would be = 196.00 - 19.6 = $176.40

April would pay $176.40 for the phone.

The difference between the original price and the sale price =

245.00 - 176.40 = $68.60 rounded to $69.00

The phone price is $69 less than the original price.
