Cole bought a portable air-conditioner and a television. The original price of the portable air-conditioner was $2600 and the original price of the television was half the original price of the portable air-conditioner. Cole was given a 11% discount on the television. How much did Cole pay altogether?
Original price of the television
= 2600 ÷ 2
= $1300

Discounted price of the television in percent
= 100% - 11%
= 89%

100% of the price of the television = 1300
1% of the price of the television = 1300 ÷ 100 = 13
89% of the price of the television = 89 x 13 = 1157

Discounted price of the television = $1157

Total amount that Cole paid
= 2600 + 1157
= $3757

Answer(s): $3757
