What is the total cost?*

Answer 1

Answer:

$545.1575

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

• 499,9.25

Solve ways:

• combine 9.25% of 499 and 499

Multiply 9.25 by 0.01:

• $9.25%$·$0.01=0.0925$

Multiply the cost by 0.0925:

• $499$·$0.0925= 46.1575$

Combine 46.1575 by the first value:

• $499+ 46.1575= 545.1575$

Therefore, the PlayStation 5 will be a total cost of $545.1575.
