A woman went to a sale with a coupon that gave her a twenty percent discount on certain items. She bought a sweater and a skirt that qualified for the discount. The regular price for both items would be \(\$160.00\) . What price did the woman pay for the clothing she bought?
A woman has \(\$450\) in a bank account. She earns 5% interest on her end-of-month balance. How much interest will she earn for the month?
A product originally costs \(\$125\). If the product goes on sale for 20% off, and then goes on sale for an additional 30% off, what is the price of the product?
