Question

You and your 2 siblings split 300 PS4 on sale for 30% off after 6% tax how much do you each pay

Answer 1

First, since the 3 siblings split $300 on the PS4, you can consider the PS4 is $100 for each person. So 6% tax means 106% is the price for the PS4. 100 x 106% (or 1.06 in fact) = $106. Now, you have to find 30% of 106(106 x .3), which is 31.8. This is what one sibling pays, so this should be the answer

Answer 2

$ 74.2 each because 30 %of 300 is 90 so you take out the 90 and only 210 left. after that 6 %of 210 is 12.6 so your add 12.6 tax to 210 .. so you have 222.6 at last you divide it by 3 so you get 74.2
