A discount electronics store normally sells all merchandise at a discount of 5 percent to 25 percent off the suggested retail price. If, during a special sale, an additional 25 percent were to be deducted from the discount price, what would be the lowest possible price of an item costing $300 before any discount?  Choose the most appropriate option.
A) $130.00 B) $160.75 C) $168.75 D) $182.00 E) $168.00
Original price : 300 $   Max first discount = -25%   Thus : 300âˆ—(1âˆ’25/100)=225   Second discount on the discounted price = -25%   Thus : 225âˆ—(1âˆ’25/100)=168.75   Answer $168.75
