Question

If a $350 laptop is discounted 15%, but then has 9% sales tax added, what is the total price you must pay?

Answer 1

Answer:

$324.27

Step-by-step explanation:

$discount = 350 \times \frac{15}{100} = 52.5$

$price \: after \: discount = 350 - 52.5 = 297.5$

$sale \: tax = 297.5 \times 9\%$

$\frac{2975}{10} \times \frac{9}{100} = 26.77$

$price \: he \: have \: to \: pay = 297.50 + 26.77 = 324.27$
