Answer:
The answer is A: 120yd^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume = Width x length x height
Volume = 8 x 3 x 5
Volume = 120
Divide the sale price by the original price:
56 / 89 = 0.7
Multiply by 100:
0.7 x 100 = 70%
The sale price is 70% of the original price, so the discount would be 30% (100-70= 30)
.21 is decimal form, 21/100 is the fraction in simplest form.
Since sales tax goes after the discount, it would be 3 dollars and 20 cents. Taking 50 dollars and 20% is discounted (50*.2), which would be 10 dollars taken off. It would be 40 dollars shoes and then you apply sales tax by multiplying 40 by .08, giving you the amount of tax paid.
