Answer 1

$229.50

Explanation:

Given;

The price of one pair of shorts is $45.00.

There is a 15% discount if you purchase four or more pairs

To FInd;

What is the total cost, before tax, for six pairs of shorts?

Solve:

Since one pair of shorts is $45

Then six pairs of shorts =

$45 x 6 = $270

Now it also says "There is a 15% discount if you purchase four or more pairs". So we buy six pairs thus, it more than four.

Hence,

$270 x 15% = 40.50

$270 - 40.50 = 229.50

Hence, Answer = $229.50
