Question

Nathan took his car in for service and repairs. He had a coupon for 10% off

Which amount is closest to Nathan‘s total cost after the 10% discount and including 6% sales tax? [Assume text is applied after the discount is applied.]

Answer 1

C. $571.

Explanation:

1st you have to add up the total cost so:

213.15 + 344.21 + 76.65 = $ 634.01

next find 10% of 634.01

10% of 634.01 is 63.401

then you subtract 63.401 from 634.01 so basically you subtract the 10% discount from the total cost so:

634.01 - 63.401 = 570.609 is equal to $576.90

$576.90 is closest to $571

Hope this helps : )
