Mr. Smith got a new puppy, Stout! He went out and bought a bag of puppy chow for $27.99, but had a 15% off coupon.

1. What is the cost of the puppy chow after the discount?





2. With 6.5% sales tax, what would be the final price?

1. $27.99 - 15% = 23.79

2. $23.79 + = 6.5% = 30.29

1. 27.99 divide by 100 x 85% = 23.79

2. 23.79 divide 100 x 106.5% = 25.34 i think !!
