Question

Marshall is buying a new phone that costs $150. It is on sale for 25% off plus there is a 6% sales tax. How much will Marshall pay for the phone after the discount and sales tax?

Answer 1

$121.5

Explanation:

Given data

costs of phone = $150

discount= 25%

tax= 6%

amount of discount

= 25/100*150

=0.25*150

=$37.5

amount of tax

= 6/100*150

=0.06*150

=$9

amount payable

=150-37.5+9

=$121.5

Hence he will pay $121.5
