Your pharmacy normally pays $6 a bottle for aspirin, 325mg tablets. Your wholesaler offers a discount of 12% if you buy a case of 48 bottles. How much would a case of aspirin, 325mg tablets cost?
  1. $288
  2. $253
  3. $230
  4. $322
Explanation
Answer: B - A case of 48 bottles of aspirin, 325mg tablets, at a 12% discount, would cost $253. A case of 48 bottles would cost $6 x 48 = $288. The case of 48 bottles at the 12% discount would cost $288 x 0.88 (represents the total cost - 12% discount) = $253.
