Question

You want to buy a jacket that is $75. Today it is marked down 33 one-third percent. The sales tax is 8%. How much will you pay?

Answer 1

Answer:

$54

Step-by-step explanation:

Price of jacket = $75

Markdown = 33.33...%

Sales tax = 8%

First we have to find the price of the jacket after the markdown.

75-33.33(75)

75-(25)

50

New price of jacket = $50

Now to calculate the price with sales tax.

50+0.08(50)

50+(4)

54
