Answer:
$25.92
Explanation:
If you use the proportions x/24=8/100 and solve for x, you will find that 24x8=192 when you cross multiply. Then divide 192 by 100 and you will get 1.92. Now add $24.00 and $1.92 to get the final cost of $25.92.
Sales tax is $1.92 -- 1 dollar and 92 cents.
Cost of DVD = $24
Sales tax is 8% = 8/100 x $24 = 0.08 x 24 = $1.92
Total cost = cost of DVD + Sales Tax = $24 + $1.92 = $25.92
