\"1200-%280.03%291200\" after the first discount;
\n" ); document.write( "but the next result depends on what exactly is being discounted FROM WHAT.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"1200-%280.24%29%281200%29\"?\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Maybe what is wanted is
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28786%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Description is not exact enough, so that is maybe not the intended result.
\n" ); document.write( "HOW is the 24% discount supposed to be intended? On the original or on the price after the 3% discount?\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3% discount on original $1200:
\n" ); document.write( "\"1200-%280.03%29%281200%29=1164\";
\n" ); document.write( "24% discount on the 3% discounted sell price,
\n" ); document.write( "\"1164-%280.24%29%281164%29=highlight%28884.64%29\".
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
