Cody bought a jacket on sale for 50% off the original price, and another 25% off the discounted price. If the jacket originally cost $60.00, what was the final sale price for the jacket

50% of $60 = $30

100% - 25% = 75%

75% of $30 = 0.75 * 30 = $22.50

Or you could have found 25% of $30 = $7.50 This would be the second discount.

final amount would be $30.00 - $7.50 = $22.50
