Connor wanted to order some new books to read.  The website was offering free shipping over $50.00.  They also had a deal that when you buy 4 books; the first two were 25% off.  Book 1 cost 13.00 and Book 2 cost 15.00.  Book 3 & 4 were both $10.00 each.  How much more money did Connor need to spend to receive free shipping?
How much did books 1 and 2 cost? ** Book 1 was $12.50 and book 2 was $15.00 so 13.00 +15.00 = $28.00
How much did books 1 and 2 cost after the 25% discount? ** He was buying 4 books, so these 2 were 25% off so 28.00 * .25 = $7.00
How much did books 1 and 2 cost after the 25% discount? ** These two books came out to 28-7 = $<<28-7=21.00>>21.00
How much did books 3 and 4 cost? ** Books 3 & 4 were both $10 each so 2*10 = $20.00
How much did books 1-4 cost? ** When you add all 4 books together, 21+20 = $<<21+20=41.00>>41.00
How much more money did Connor need to spend to receive free shipping? ** To get free shipping he would need to spend 50-41 = $<<50-41=9.00>>9.00 more on books
