Answer:

$17,999.985

Explanation:

First you seee how much 30% in decimal form and it is 0.3. Than you time 0.3 times 5 and that is 1.5 Should look like this (0.3x5=1.5).

after that you will subtract 1.5 minus 18,000 and you will get $17,999.985 should lol like this $(1.5-18,000= 17,999.985) .

hope this helps
