You want to buy a new pair of shoes. While looking around at different shoes and styles online, you see a coupon for $10 off a pair of shoes at a local retailer in town. When you arrive at the store, you see they have sale, 15% off any pair of shoes in stock, but you are not allowed to apply any additional discounts. You do the math to decide whether the coupon or the 15% discount will save you the most money, and you find out the discounted price is the same no matter whether you use the coupon or receive 15% off from the sale. How much did the pair of shoes cost?
