Solve the problem.A department store is having a clearance sale. The price on a television is reduced by 37%. That sale price is then reduced by another 37%. If x is the television's original price, the sale price can be represented by (x - 0.37x) - 0.37(x - 0.37x). With these two reductions, at what percentage of the original price is the television being sold? Use the factored, simplified form of the expression to answer the question.

A. 63%
B. 26%
C. 39.69%
