Question

Kim went to the grocery store to get some snacks. She bought 3 bags of chips at 89¢ each, 5 candy bars at 50¢ each, and one three-liter bottle of soda at $1.89. She had to pay 8% sales tax.

Answer 1

The chips all together are 2.67, the candy bars total 2.5, the soda bottle is 1.89$. Add that all together for a total of 7.06. Multiply that by 1.08 to account for taxes and get 7.62.
