Question

David wants to buy a bowling ball that has a price of $120. As a member of a bowling league, he is entitled to a 15% discount off the price of the bowling ball. He will also have to pay 6% sales tax on the discounted price of the bowling ball. What is the final price David pays for the bowling ball, after the sales tax and discount applied?

Answer 1

$109.2

Explanation:

Given data

Cost of bowling ball= $120

DIscount= 15%

Tax= 6%

let us calculate the discount and tax

=15/100*120

=0.15*120

=$18

=6/100*120

=0.06*120

=$7.2

In all the bill is 120-18+7.2

=102+7.2

=$109.2
