Question

A store is having a clearance sale where all prices are 40% off. The store is located in a county with a 7.5% sales tax.

What is the final price, including sales tax, if you purchased a $10.00 shirt and $6.00 hat?

Answer 1

6.88

Explanation:

40 percent of 10 dollars is 4 dollars and 40 percent of 6 is 2.4 which is 6.4 and 7.5 of 6.4 is 0.48 so 6.4 plus 0.48 is 6.88.
