First let's convert 7.5% into a decimal by doing Beyoncé on it and move the decimal two places to the left.


7.5\% = 0.075

Now let's multiply the cost of the DVD by the converted percent,


26.75 * 0.075 = 2.00
Now let's add the above number to the original price, remember, $2 is not exact.


26.75 + 2.00 = 28.75
