First divide 93 by 3 to get 25% of the original price: 31. Then multiply it by 4 to get the whole original price, which is $124. Now onto the shoes.
Divide 119 by 17 to get 7, which is 5% of the original price for the shoes. Then multiply 7 by 20, which is $140 for shoes.
Subtract 124-93 to get 31, the savings on the dress and also subtract
140-119 to get 21, savings on the shoes. Then add them together to get a grand savings total of $52 in savings. Hope this helps!
