Step-by-step explanation:20% of 89.99 is 18

89.99x8=719.92

18×8=144

719.92+144=

Answer 2

he will pay 864 dollars in total

Explanation:

first we have to find 20% of 90 (i just rounded 89.99 to 90).

20% = 1/5, and 1/5 in decimal form is 0.20. (you can find the decimal value by multiplying the numerator and denominator by 10/10 and then simplifying it)

0.20 * 90 is 18, so we then add that to 90 making 108.

next, since Mark is buying 8 tickets, we multiply 108 by 8, giving us 864

therefore, 864 is our final answer
