Answer:

303.92

Explanation:

Marisol has $475. She wants to buy a printer that costs $245.99 but is currently on sale with a 35% discount. Marisol will also have to pay a sales tax of 7%.

First we have to find 35% of 245.99 which is 86.0965. That's how much you saved.


245.99*0.35=86.0965\\

So we have to subtract it from the original cost of the printer.


245.99-86.0965=159.8935

Now we have to add the sales tax of 7%.


159.8935*0.07=11.192545\\\\171.086045

Finally, just subtract the whole (checkout) price (171.086045) from the money she had (475).


475-171.086045=303.913955

How much money will Marisol have left after her purchase?​

The exact answer is 303.913955, but it rounds to 303.92 (I'm sure that's what you're looking for).

Hope that helped! :D
