Question

Joshua has $560. He wants to buy a laptop that costs $320 as well as a case for the laptop that costs $65 and is currently on sale with a 15% discount. He will also have to pay a sales tax of 8% on both products. How much money will Joshua have left after his purchase?

Answer 1

Answer:$154.73

Explanation:

Take 65 and multiple .15 and that will give you the 15% off of the case. When u do that you get 9.75 so then 65-9.75= 55.25 multiply .08 for the sales tax on the case = 4.42 add to 55.25= 59.67 then add the sales tax for the laptop 320 multiplied by .08 = 25. 60 for a total of 345.60 then add that to 59.67 = 405.27 then u have to subtract that from 560 and Josh has $154.73
