HELLP ME PLS QUICK Oscar and Kim have $22.00 each to spend at a book fair, where all students receive a 30% discount. They both want to purchase a copy of the same book, which normally sells for $28.50 plus 10% sales tax. To check if he has enough to purchase the book, Oscar takes 30% of $28.50 and subtracts that amount from the normal price. He takes 10% of the discounted selling price and adds it back to find the purchase amount. Kim takes 70% of the normal purchase price and then computes 110% of the reduced price. Is Oscar correct? Is Kim correct? Do they have enough money to purchase the book? Explain your answer using complete sentences, and show your work.

HELLLP ME PLS QUICK

Both Oscar and Kim will have enough to purchase the book.

Step-by-step explanation:

Oscar takes 30% of the normal price and subtracts it from the normal price. Out of 100% price he takes 30% so the result is: 100-30%= 70% of the normal price. Oscar's first step has the same result as Kim.

Oscar takes 10% of the discounted price (70%) and adds it back. The price will become 70% + 10%*70%= 77% of original price. Kim multiplies the discounted price with 110%, so the price will be: 70% * 110%= 77%. Both also give the same result.

The final price is 77% of the original, it will be: $28.50* 77%= $21.945

Oscar :

28.50 - 0.30(28.50) = 28.50 - 8.55 = 19.95

0.10(19.95) + 19.95 = 2 + 19.95 = 21.95

Kim :

0.7(28.50) = 19.95

1.10(19.95) = 21.95

Both Oscar and Kim got the same amount and they both had enough money to buy the book.

Given that,

Oscar and Kim have money to spend at a book fair = $22

Discount for all the students = 30% = 0.30

They both want to purchase a copy of the same book, which normally sells for $28.50 plus 10% sales tax.

Book normally sells for = $ 28.50 + 10% sales tax

According to the question,

Oscar takes 30% of $28.50 and subtracts that amount from the normal price. He takes 10% of the discounted selling price and adds it back to find the purchase amount.

28.50 - 0.30(28.50) = 28.50 - 8.55 = 19.95

0.10(19.95) + 19.95 = 2 + 19.95 = $21.95

Kim takes 70% = 0.7 of the normal purchase price and then computes 110% = 1.10 of the reduced price.

0.7(28.50) = 19.95

1.10(19.95) = $21.95

Hence, Both Oscar and Kim got the same amount and they both had enough money to buy the book.
