Worked Solution

Step 1: Apply the 20% sale discount to the marked price. Sale price = $200 × (100% − 20%) = $200 × 0.80 = $160. Step 2: Apply the additional 15% member discount to the SALE price (not the original). Final price = $160 × (100% − 15%) = $160 × 0.85 = $136. Step 3: Aisha pays $136. Answer: $136

Correct answer: $136
