Question

15. Fatima bought a video game that has a
regular price of $45. The game was on
sale for 15 percent off, and she paid
sales tax of 7 percent. What was the
price Fatima paid for the video game?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Discount = 15% of 45

$=\frac{15}{100}*45\\\\=\frac{675}{100}=6.75$

= $6.75

Price of the video game = 45 - 6.75 = $38.25

Tax = 7%of 38.25

$=\frac{7}{100}*38.25\\\\=\frac{267.75}{100}=2.6775$

Price paid by Fatima for the video game = 38.25 + 2.68 = $ 40.93
