0.765 (100) + .06 (.0765 x 100)
76.5  + .06 (76.5)  
76.5 + 4.59 = 81.09    Chris will pay $81.09

A better way ( if you don't care to know the tax just the bottom line of what it will cost) would be to do:

0.765x x 1.06 = 76.5 x 1.06 = $81.09 too.

Why the 1 in front of the .06?  The one includes the price of the coat so you don't have to add the tax on after.
Think about it like this. When you buy something you pay (even with an employee 
discount) for all of it (100%) + the tax (in this case, it's 6%)  So you pay 106% of the cost of the item.  106% = 1.06

The total number of people in the city surveyed by Annette= 480 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'X' be the Total Number of people Annette surveyed.

Out of Total people in the city, only <u>180 people are not interested</u> in a new shopping mall.

Therefore, it is given in the question that <u>180 is 37.5% of Total number of people surveyed (X).</u>

step 1: 180= (37.5/100)*(X)

step 2: X= (180*100)/37.5

step 3: X= 18000/37.5

step 4: X= 480
