Question

got a haircut for $40 wanted to pay the hair stylist 20% and tax is 6.25%.How much did i spend in total for the haircut.

Answer 1

First, multiply 40(.20) which equals 8. So now you're up to paying 48 dollars. Then you would take 48(6.25%) which equals 3. Add 3 to 48 to get your total price of $51.00.

Answer 2

Hi!

40 * 20% = 8

40 + 8 = 48

48 * 6.25% = 3

48 + 3 = 51

$51 were spent.
