Question

You have a coupon for 30% off your total order.
You buy a shirt, shoes, and a hat. The shirt is
$15, the shoes are $65, and the hat is $14. The
tax rate is 6%, taken on the subtotal. How much
do you pay?

Answer 1

Answer:

you pay $69.74

Step-by-step explanation:

total cost without coupon: 15+65+14 = 94

apply the 30% discount ⇒ 94 × .30 = 28.20

subtract the savings ⇒ 94.00 - 28.20

total, after coupon, before tax ⇒ 65.80

apply 6% tax to 65.80  ⇒  65.8 × .06  ⇒ 3.94

add tax to cost after coupon ⇒  65.80 + 3.94

you pay $69.74
