Question

The Bridal Shop bought a dress from a supplier for $105 wholesale and applied a 65% markup to the price.

If a 7.5% sales tax were added after a 20% discount was used, what would be the total cost to purchase the dress?
A
$146.20

B
$149.00

C
$158.48

D
$160.17

Answer 1

B $149.00

Explanation:

105 * 1.65 = 173.25 (100%+ 65%) Price with the markup

173.25 *0.80 138.60 (Price after 20% discount .The price will be the 80%)

138.60 * 1.075 = 148.995 (price with 7.5 sales tax.)
