Answer:
The total purchase is $ 1213.13 .
Explanation:
As given
You buy some living room furniture.
The coffee table costs $189.99.
The loveseat costs $249.95.
The sofa costs $493.68, and 2 chairs cost $98.75 each.
Total cost of the furniture = coffee table costs + loveseat costs + sofa costs + 2 chairs cost
Put the value in above
Total cost of the furniture = $189.99 + $249.95 + $493.68 + 2 × $98.75
Total cost of the furniture = $189.99 + $249.95 + $493.68 + $197.5
Total cost of the furniture = $1131.12
As Sales tax is 7.25% .
7.25% is written in the decimal form.
= 0.0725
Sales tax price = 0.0725 × $1131.12
= $ 82.01 (Approx)
Total purchase = Total cost of the furniture + Sales tax price
= $1131.12 + $ 82.01
= $ 1213.13
Therefore the total purchase is $ 1213.13 .
