Answer:The amount of money that you would need to buy the game is $73.324
Explanation:
The store buys a video game for the wholesale price of $39.99. There was a markup of 70% on the price of the game. The value of the markup would be
70/100× 39.99 = 0.7×39.99 = $27.993
Cost of the game plus 70% markup would be
39.99 + 27.993 = $67.893
There is sales tax of 8% on the game. This means that the value of the tax would be
8/100 × 67.893 = 0.08 × 67.893 = $5.431
The amount of money that you would need to buy the game would be
67.893 + 5.431 = $73.324
