Question

Luis wants to buy a skateboard that usually sells for $79.47. All merchandise is discounted by 12%. What is the total cost of the skateboard if Luis has to pay a state sales tax of 8.25%. Round your intermediate calculations and answer to the nearest cent.

Answer 1

79.47 (total cost before sale) - 9.02 (12% off) = 70.45 (total after sale).
70.45 (total after sale) + 6.32 (tax) = $76.77
Hope this helps!!!
