Answer:
Approximately $14.20
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of the groceries be represented by c, then;
cost price + VAT = c + (5% of c)
To get the value of the cost, c, that would make him spend as close to $15. Since the tax is 5% of the cost price, then the cost price would be close to $15.
Let c = $14.20, then;
So that,
c + (5% of c) = 14.20 + (5% of 14.20)
= 14.20 + 0.71
= $14.91
Thus, the greatest total cost of groceries Darla can spend in order to spend as close to $15 as possible is approximately $14.20.
