A ladies' suit selling for $140 is marked down 25 % for a special promotion. It is later marked down 5 % of the sale price. Since the suit still hasn't sold, it is marked down to a price that is 65 % off the original selling price. What are the two sale prices of the suit? What is the final selling price of the suit?

    The first promotion = $140 x 25% = $35

    = $140 - $35

    = $105

    The second time it is marked down, it is marked down 5% of that sale price, therefore = $105 x 5% = $ 5.25

    = $105 - $ 5.25

    = $99.75

    The final promotion is 65% off the original price

    = $140 x 65% = $91

    =$140 - $91

    =$49

    The final selling price of the suit is therefore $49.
