Question

Ela is buying $110 chair. She has a coupon for 15% off. How much does she pay for the chair if sales tax is 6%?

Answer 1

$99.11 dollars

Explanation:

Given the following question:
$110 dollars for a chair...
15% off from a coupon...
Then a 6% sales tax....


`(15*110)/(100) =15*110=1650/100=16.5`

`110-16.5=93.50`
The chair costs $93.50 dollars after the 15% off coupon.

Now the 6% sales tax:


`(93.5*6)/(100) =93.5*6=561/100=5.61`

`93.5+5.61=99.11`

`=99.11`

After the 15% coupon and the 6% sales tax, the chair will cost "$99.11 dollars."

Hope this helps.
