Discount based on the storewide 20% promotion
= 20% x 1900
=
20100 x 1900
= $380
Amount that Adam has to pay after 20% promotion
= 1900 - 380
= $1520
Further discount after another 10% discount
= 10% x 1520
=
10100 x 1520
= $152
Amount that Adam pays for the television set in all
= 1520 - 152
= $1368
Answer(s): $1368
