A computer game was originally priced at $49.99. it was marked down to 15%. It was later moved to the clearance section that stated “50% off the lowest marked price.” what was the final cost of the computer game?

A. $7.50
B. $21.25
C. $42.49
D. $57.49

B. $21.25

Step-by-step explanation:

First you divide 15 and 50 by 100 and you get .15 and .50 or .5. Then you multiply 49.99 by .15 and you get 7.49 (you have to take the first two digits after the decimal) then since its 15% off you subtract 7.49 from 49.99 and you get 42.50 (49.99 - 7.49 = 42.50). After that you multiply 42.50 by .5 (because its 50% off from the lowest marked price) and you get 21.25 and since its 50% off you subtract 21.25 from 42.50 and you get 21.25 (42.50 - 21.15 = 21.25). Hope this helps :)
