Fred bought a television and a washing machine. The original price of the television was $2000 and the original price of the washing machine was half the original price of the television. Fred was given a 33% discount on the washing machine. How much did Fred pay altogether?
Original price of the washing machine
= 2000 ÷ 2
= $1000

Discounted price of the washing machine in percent
= 100% - 33%
= 67%

100% of the price of the washing machine = 1000
1% of the price of the washing machine = 1000 ÷ 100 = 10
67% of the price of the washing machine = 67 x 10 = 670

Discounted price of the washing machine = $670

Total amount that Fred paid
= 2000 + 670
= $2670

Answer(s): $2670
