A television costs 375 dollars. It is on sale for 25% and there’s a sales tax of 6.5% Let’s calculate to get the answer. Original Price = 375 dollars Let’s add the 6.5% sales tax => 6.5% = 6.5 / 100 = 0.065 => 375 * 0.065 = 24.375 => 375 + 27.375 = 399.375 Let’s subtract the 25% discount => 25% = 25 / 100 = .25 => 399.375 * .25 = 99.84375 => 399.375 - 99.84375 = 299.53. Thus the new price of the television is 299.53 with the sales tax and discount.

25% of $375 is:
$375* (25/100)= $93.75.

The cost of the television after sale off and before the sales tax is:
$375- $93.75= $281.25

The sales tax is:
$281.25* (6.5/100)= $18.28

The price of the television including everything is:
$281.25+ $18.28= $299.53

Hope this helps~
