HELP IM IN A TEST A video game is on sale at Amazon for 25% off the original price of $26.50. Both Pat and Henri want to purchase the game, but they only have $23 each. They each have to pay 10% sales tax. Pat and Henri have different strategies to calculate the price and decide if they have enough money to get the game.

Pat takes 25% of $26.50 and subtracts that from the original price. She takes 10% of the sale price and adds it to the sale price to find the total amount she would have to pay.
