Question

A TV that usually sells for $176.24 is on sale for 25% off. If sales tax on the TV Is 6%, what is the price of the TV ,including tax?

Answer 1

Answer:

Sale price = $142.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Marked price = $176.24

Discount = 25%

Sales tax = 6%

Discount = 25/100 × $176.24 = $44.06

Sales tax = 6/100 × $176.24 = $10.57 (correct to one cent)

Price after discount plus sales tax = ($176.24 -$44.06) + $10.57 = $142.75
