Tires are $60 each with a 30% discount for 6 pairs or more. How much would it cost for 20 tires?

20 tires is 10 pairs, so you qualify for the discount. 20 tires would normally cost 20*$60 = $1200. With a 30% discount, you only pay 70% of the original price, so that's 0.7*$1200 = $840.|||$840?|||do your own homework chickie..you will have to do the test on your own!!!


Here's how I would work it out..


30% of $60.00 = $18.00


(.30x60.0=18.0)


60.00-18.00= 42.00


6 pairs = 12 tires


12 x $42.00 = $504.00 dollars


20 x $42.00 = $840.00 dollars


I hope seeing the way I would do the problem helps you more than just giving you the answer !|||Twenty tires is ten pairs, so you are entitled to the discount. At 30% off, they will cost 70% of the original price:


$60 * .70 = $42.00 apiece.


20 tires at $42 would be 20 * 42 = $840.|||20 tires x $60 = $1200





discount 30% of $1200 and youi get





$1200 - 0.3*($1200) = $1200 - $360 = $840|||Who needs twenty tires other than an 18 wheelers with 2


spares. And "just u" doesn't sound like a trucker's name. so


get out of the cab, and do your homework. :-})
