the trainers will be cheaper at Alan's sport shop.

prices ->
Alan's: 27.30
Irene's: 28.00

[tex] \frac{1}{3} [/tex] of 40.95 can be calculated as follows ->

[tex] \frac{1}{3} [/tex] = [tex] \frac{x}{40.95} [/tex]
simplify to get that x = 27.30

30% of 40.00 can be calculated as follows ->

[tex] \frac{30}{100} [/tex] = [tex] \frac{x}{40.00} [/tex]
simplify to get that x = 28
