Question

A golf cart priced at $5,600 was on slae for 20% off.The sales tax rate is 6%.What is the sale price of the golf cart,including tax?

Answer 1

100-20=80%
80/100 x $5600 = $4,480 (same as 80% times $5600)
6/100 x $4,480= $268.80 (sales tax price)
$4,480+$268.80=$4748.80

Answer 2

$4748.80

Explanation:

First, find the cost with 20% off, by multiplying the price by 0.8

5600(0.8)

= 4480

Find the cost with tax, by multiplying this by 1.06

4480(1.06)

= 4748.8

So, the sale price, including tax, is $4748.80
