b) should be asking what % discount to put if the discounted price for two bags is the same as shop X.
We know that the discounted price is $63 in shop X.
So if original price of two bags = $45 x 2 = $90,
Then the discount given has to be $90 - 63 = $27
27/90 x 100%
= 3/10 x 100%
= 3 x 10%
= 30%
The discount is 30%
Another way to do this :
First shop total discount = 10% of 1 bag + 50% of 1 bag with the same price
= 60% of 1 bag
But since we know in shop Y, both bags which have the same price ,must have the same discount,
This 60% must be divided equally among the two bags
60% ÷ 2 = 30%
You erased your working but I think it is correct actually
