Question

Danielle bought a set of mixing bowls yesterday. They originally cost $23. She had a coupon for 5% off and the sales tax rate is 5%.

How much did the mixing bowls cost?

Answer 1

$22.94

Explanation:

$23 × 0.05 or 5% = $1.15

$23 - $1.15 = $21.85

$21.85 × 0.05 or 5% (for sales tax) = $1.0925

$21.85 + $1.0925 = $22.94
