Question

Marvin went on a shopping trip to Belleville. He purchased a grandfather clock originally

priced at $875 but discounted 60%. If sales tax in Belleville is 10%, what was the total cost?

Answer 1

$385

Explanation:

60% of $875 = $525

$875 - $525 = $350

10% of $350 = $35

$350 + $35 = $385
