patricia wants to have her living room carpet cleaned she found three different companies that would clean the carpet for $198 the companies are each offering discounts on their carpet cleaning services

company 1 final price: $148.5

company 2 final price: $168

company 3 final price: $132

thus, the best choice is company 3 because it costs the least and all services are the same

Step-by-step explanation:

company 1 is offering 25% off the price of their service

company 2 is offering $30 off the price of their service

company 3 is offering a 1/3 discount off the price of their service

the price of the cleaning is $198

company 1: 25% discount = 75% of the original price $198, which would be $198 * 3/4, or $148.5

company 2: $30 dollars off, which means $198 - $30 or $168

company 3: 1/3rd discount, meaning the product after the discount is only 2/3rd of the original price. 2/3rd of $198 is $132, so the final price after the discount is $132
