Question

A laptop computer is on sale for 10% off the original price

of $1,500 and a 7.25% sales tax is added after the
discount. What is the total cost?

Answer 1

$1,252.13 I believe or $1,252

Explanation:

Multiply the 1500 by .10 and you'll get 150

Now subtract that from 1500 that's 1350

.0725 multiplyed by 1350 is 97.875

Subtract that from 1350 and you'll get the answer!
