Question

The manager at Nick’s Kicks is putting the 2013 Pro-Shots basketball shoes on sale to make room for the 2014 Pro-Shots basketball shoes. The 2013 shoes’ original price is $125.00 per pair. The manager puts these shoes on sale for 30% off. James wants a pair of the 2013 shoes. How much does he pay when there is an 8% sales tax?

Answer 1

Answer: Nick would pay $94.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the original price of the pair by the discount in percentage form (0.30) and subtract it from the original price. Then calculate the tax.
