Question

#2: Grace needs to buy a new printer. The printer she wants has a price tag of $60. She has a 25% off coupon and $50 in her bank account. If she must pay 6.75% sales tax, will she have enough money to buy the printer? If yes, how much will she have left over? If no, how much is she short?

Answer 1

yes

Explanation:

$60×25%=$15...so the coupon she have worth $15 but she also have $50

so she has an overall of $65 she can use

but she must pay sales tax:$60×6,75%=$4.05

so then the overall money that she must pay for the printer is $60+$4.05=$64.05

so then the difference of her money and the price of the printer is:

$65-$64.05=$0.95

$0.95 is left over
