Question

1. Anita discovered an article detailing a glitch in Targets pricing system that lead to dually located products being charged two different prices depending on which part of the store you picked it up from. The article shows two receipts. The first purchase has a subtotal of $21.77 while the second purchase has a subtotal of $23.37, even though the same things were purchased.
   1. This person bought two bottles of Motrin and one bottle of Tylenol per trip… and they were all different prices each time! What is the percentage increase of the subtotal from the first purchase to the second?
   2. The article shows that the items picked up from the baby isle costed more than those from a regular isle. The bottle of Tylenol in the baby aisle was $8.39, while it was $7.99 in the Health and Beauty Isle. What is the percent that it increased?

Please show steps :)
