Question

Gia bought a computer that was 20% off the regular price of $1,280. If a 9% sales tax was added to the cost of the computer, what was the total price Gia paid for it?

Answer 1

1,280 - 20% = 1,024
1,024 + 9% = $1,116.16

Answer 2

1280*.8=1024
1024*1.09=1116.16
Tax is the last thing added, savings before tax since
