Question

jackson received $50 from his grandma for his birthday. he wants to buy a video game that costs $47.15. there is a 5.25% sales tax in his city. does jackson have enough money to cover the cost of his video game?

Answer 1

Explanation:

52.4 is the total cost of the video game

and Jackson only has 50

(way to find the total cost price-47.15+5.25)

∴Jackson cannot buy the video game

and maybe he should look for something in a less price :) (this line is just a joke so if you think it is part of the answer then it a BIG no-no)
