Kelly is going to shop with the $200.00 that she earned from doing chores. She wants to save 30% of her money to put into a savings account. She buys a sweater for $60.00 and a new coat for $75.00, with 6% sales tax on both items. Does Kelly still have the amount of money she planned to put into her savings account?

Answer:

No she won't

Explanation:

200(0.30)=60

60(0.06)=3.6

60+3.6=63.6

75(0.06)=4.5

75+4.5=79.5

79.5+63.6=143.1

200-143.1=56.9

56.9<60
