Discount based on the storewide 20% promotion
= 20% x 3000
=
20100 x 3000
= $600
Amount that Adam has to pay after 20% promotion
= 3000 - 600
= $2400
Further discount after another 6% discount
= 6% x 2400
=
6100 x 2400
= $144
Amount that Adam pays for the projector in all
= 2400 - 144
= $2256
Answer(s): $2256
