Question

Katie wants to buy a scooter that usually sells for $95.99. The store is having a sale and all merchandise is discounted by 20%

What is the total cost of the scooter if Katie pays 7.5% sales tax?

Answer 1

$82.55

Explanation:

95.99/100=0.9599

0.9599x80=76.792

76.792/100=0.76792

0.76792x7.5=5.7594

76.792+5.7594=82.55
