Question

a suit cost $95 Barry has a discount coupon for 10% off and the city has a 4.5 percent sales tax what is the final cost of the suit

Answer 1

SO the suit cost $95 and it has a discount of 10%
so 95*10/100=9.5
so 10% of 95 is 9.5
subtract 9.5 from 95 and that equals 85.5
then you have to add 4.5 percent sales tax
so 85.5+ 4.5%= 89.347
So the final cost would be $89.34
