A store purchases a shirt for $16.89. The store marks up the shirt by 20%. Right now, they are having a sale for 40% off any item. What is the sale price with a 7.25% tax?

Answer:

$13.04

Explanation:

First, multiply 16.89 by 1.2, 0.6, and 1.0725. You should get a weird number on your calculator saying 13.042458, but just round 2 to the 4 ( 4 stays the same) and remove all the other numbers to get $13.04
