Question

Daniel bought 4 packages of ribbon for $0.80 each, 2 rolls of wrapping paper for $4 each, and a pair of good scissors for $12. Including a sales tax of 8%, how much did Daniel spend altogether on all the items? Pls show step by step!

Answer 1

See below.

Explanation:

4 packages of ribbon:
`0.80`

`0.80*4=3.2`

2 rolls of wrapping paper:
`4`

`4*2=8`

Scissors:
`12`

Add them all together and it will be $
`23.2`.

If the sales tax is 8%, divide the percentage to find the decimal form.

`(8)/(100) =0.08`

Multiply the percentage by the added total.

`23.2 *0.08=1.856`

Round it up and it will be
`1.86`

Add the percentage and total together.

`23.2+1.86=25.06`

Answer:
`25.06`
