Which is a step in the process of calculating successive discounts of 8% and 10% on a $50 item? a. take 2% of $50 b. take 8% of $46 c. take 10% of $46 d. take 18% of $50

Answer

The  process of calculating successive discounts of 8% and 10% on a $50 item is take 10% of $46.

Option (c) is correct.

Reason

As given

successive discounts of 8% and 10% on a $50 item .

First find out for 8 % discount

8% is written in the decimal form

= 0.08

8 % of $50 item = 0.08 × 50

                          = $ 4

Price of item after 8% discount = 50 - 4

                                                    = $46  

First find out for 10 % discount

10% is written in the decimal form

= 0.1

8 % of $48 item = 0.1× 46

                          = $4.6

Price of item after 8% discount = 46 - 4.6

                                                    = $41.4

Therefore in the successive discounts of 8% and 10% on a $50 item is $41.4 .

and  Option (c) is correct .
