    Step-by-step explanation:

    A) The pants are $45.

    On Monday, everything is 15% off

    100 - 15 = 85, so Jack will pay 85% of the original price.

    45 * 0.85 = $38.25

    B} On Friday, everything is 50% off

    100 - 50 = 50, so Jack will pay 50% of the original price.

    45 * 0.5 = $22.50

    38.25 - 22.50 = 15.75

    Jack would have saved $15.75

    C) Blouse: $32, Skirt: $46, Sweater: $55. On Wednesday, everything is 25% off.

    100 - 25 = 75

    32 + 46 + 55 = 133

    133 * 0.25 = 33.25

    Susan has a $33.25 discount.

    D) 133 - 33.25 = 99.75

    Susan paid $99.75

    E) 133 * 0.5 = 66.5

    99.75 - 66.5 = 33.25

    Susan would have saved $33.25
