3. $490

4. $30

Step-by-step explanation:

As given in the picture related to the given question, there are two ways one can get a color television, one by the cash price of $460 or by the renting plan of 25% of the price as a deposit and the rest in a15 equal payments of $25.

Then the amount of deposit would be :

$460*25/100

= $115

It is given in the image attached that there must be 15 payments (each of $25) after the deposit.

The total amount one has to pay using hire purchase plan is :

= deposit + total money by monthly payments

= 115 + 375

= $ 490

By using cash price one can save -

= total cost using the rental plan - cash price

= 490 - 460

=  $ 30
