Given :
Cost of 3 pairs of jeans = $138
So, cost of a pair of jean = 138/3
= $46
Discount % = 25%
So, 25% of $46 = 46/100 × 25
= $11.5
So, sale price of a jeans = $46 - $11.5
= $34.5
So, Sale price of 2 pair of jeans = 2 × $34.5
= $69
Original price of 2 pair of jeans = $46 × 2
= $92
So, Amount saved in Sale = $92 - $69
= $23
Hence, customer save $23 by purchasing 2 pair of jeans in Sale.
