Question

Gregory sees an $80.00 jacket on sale at 30% off. How much will it cost after a 7% sales tax is applied? $56.00 $59.92 $64.00 $67.43

Answer 1

59.92

You will do 80.00 minus 30% which is 56.00 then you will the 7% sales tax to that which gives you 59.92

Answer 2

Explanation:

The jacket is 30% off which means the sale price is 70% of the original cost.

Multiply the original price by 70%:

80 x 0.70 = $56.00

Now multiply the sale price by 1 + sales tax:

56 x 1.07 = $59.92

I HOPE THIS HELPS! :)
