Answer 2

Answer:

$56.55

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A $65.00 dress is on sale for 20% off, and the sales tax is 7%.

To Find : Find the total purchase price to the nearest cent

Solution:

Normal Price of dress = $65

Sale is of 20 %

So, price of dress on sale = $65-20\% \times 65$

                                           = $52$

Sales tax = 7%

So, Final price including sales tax = $52+7\% \times 65$

                                                        = $56.55$

Hence the total purchase price is $56.55
