Answer:
Kerry should pay = 155520
Step-by-step explanation:
Total amount paid = 14,4000 + 8% of 14,4000
It is given that,
Kerry purchased a used car for 14,4000. And had to pay 8% sales tax
<u>To find the 8% of 14,4000</u>
8% of 14,4000 = (8*144000)/100 = 11520
<u>To find total amount paid</u>
Total amount paid = 14,4000 + 8% of 14,4000
= 14,4000 + 11520 =155520
Therefore Kerry should pay = 155520
4 / 0.80 = 12 / x...cross multiply
4x = 0.80 * 12
4x = 9.6
x = 9.6 / 4
x = 2.4.....12 apples cost $ 2.40
Okay. So in order to solve this problem, we really have to try out each answer and divide it by 9. A is not correct, because it does not divide evenly. B works, but let's check the others. C and D do not work, but E also works as well. If you can have two answers, 504 and 882 are both exactly divisible by 9. The answers are B: 504 and E: 882.
