Rael bought a portable air-conditioner and a dishwasher. The original price of the portable air-conditioner was $2600 and the original price of the dishwasher was half the original price of the portable air-conditioner. Rael was given a 22% discount on the dishwasher. How much did Rael pay altogether?
Original price of the dishwasher
= 2600 ÷ 2
= $1300

Discounted price of the dishwasher in percent
= 100% - 22%
= 78%

100% of the price of the dishwasher = 1300
1% of the price of the dishwasher = 1300 ÷ 100 = 13
78% of the price of the dishwasher = 78 x 13 = 1014

Discounted price of the dishwasher = $1014

Total amount that Rael paid
= 2600 + 1014
= $3614

Answer(s): $3614
