20% off all three...
You can take discounts separately and add them, or add them and then take the discount...so,
.2($2.50+$4.95+$6.00) =
.2($13.45) = $2.69
hope this helped

can you put the steps in Distribution and one of them with out it
ok i'll try

Take each individual price and calculate the tax.
2.50 x 6%
2.50 x 0.06 = 0.15
The tax on the $2.50 item is 15 cents.
8.75 x 0.06 = 0.525
The tax on the $8.75 item is 53 cents.
with Distribution
2.50 x 6%
2.50 x 0.06 = 0.15
The tax on the $2.50 item is 15 cents.
8.75 x 0.06 = 0.525
The tax on the $8.75 item is 53 cents.
with Distribution
Without distribution:
Add all of the prices together and find the overall tax.
2.50 + 8.75 + 3.00 + 10.25 = 24.50
24.50 x 0.06 = 1.47
Add all of the prices together and find the overall tax.
2.50 + 8.75 + 3.00 + 10.25 = 24.50
24.50 x 0.06 = 1.47
thx
thats all
hope you enjoy your points
thanks
