Discount based on the storewide 25% promotion
= 25% x 1400
=
25100 x 1400
= $350
Amount that Adam has to pay after 25% promotion
= 1400 - 350
= $1050
Further discount after another 4% discount
= 4% x 1050
=
4100 x 1050
= $42
Amount that Adam pays for the printer in all
= 1050 - 42
= $1008
Answer(s): $1008
