Question

Carter bought a pair of shoes online for $64. He used a coupon code to get a 10% discount. The website also applied a 5% processing fee to the price after the discount. How much did Carter pay for the processing fee? Round to the nearest cent.

Answer 1

$60.48

Explanation:

Price after the discount = original price - discount

discount = 10% x 64 = $6.4

$64 - $6.4 = $57.60

processing fee = 57.60 x 5% = $2.88

Price paid = $2.88 + $57.60 = $60.48
