Discount based on the storewide 20% promotion
= 20% x 2500
=
20100 x 2500
= $500
Amount that Adam has to pay after 20% promotion
= 2500 - 500
= $2000
Further discount after another 6% discount
= 6% x 2000
=
6100 x 2000
= $120
Amount that Adam pays for the massage chair in all
= 2000 - 120
= $1880
Answer(s): $1880
