Question

A CD usually sells for $12.00. If the CD is 30% off, and sales tax is 6%, what is the total price of the CD, including tax?

Answer 1

30% of 12 is 12 x .30= 3.6 so after the discount the cd is $8.40. 6$ of 8.40 is 8.40 x .06= .50 which is the amount of tax you will pay. 8.40 + .50= $8.90

Hope this helps
