$264.00

45% off means that the new price of the desk will be 55% of the original price.

$480.00(100-45) = $480.00(55)

Converting the percent to a decimal gives:

$480.00(0.55)

Your Answer:

$264

Answer:

$285.12

Explanation:

Start by finding the discount price

$480 * 0.45 = 216

Now subtract

$480 - 216 = 264

Then you will need to find the sales tax

264 * 0.08 = 21.12

now add

21.12 + 264 = 285.12
