TOMMY AND RALPH BOTH OWN CLOTHING STORES SELLING THE SAME ITEMS.
TOMMY SELLS THE SAME PAIR OF SHOES AS RALPH, AND THEY BOTH SELL FOR $100.
TOMMY DECIDES TO LOWER THE PRICE BY 25% AND RALPH COUNTERS BY LOWERING THE
PRICE 30%.
WHEN TOMMY FINDS OUT THAT RALPH LOWERED THE PRICE ON HIS SHOES, TOMMY LOWERS
THE PRICE OF HIS BY ANOTHER 15%. RALPH IN TURN LOWERS THE PRICE THE PRICE
OF HIS BY 10%.
WHO IS SELLING THE SHOES NOW FOR THE LESSER PRICE AND WHAT IS THAT PRICE?

GOOD LUCK, FRIENDS!!!!!!
