Question

An album sells for $17.00 through an online music service. If the album is 20% off, and sales tax is 6%, what is the total price of the album including tax?

Answer 1

$14.42

Explanation:

Price of Album - $17.00 * .20 = 3.4 (this is the discount)

Then subtract 3.40 from 17.00 to get 13.60

Add the sales tax in by doing $13.60 * 0.06 = $0.82

Add that to the 13.60 to get $14.42 for the total after discount and after tax.
