Question

You bought items at Best Buy that rang up $143.75. You have a 30% discount and have to pay 9.5% sales tax.

Answer 1

Answer:

Around $110

Step-by-step explanation:

30% discount means 70% is to be paid

70/100 × 143.75

100.625

9.5% means 109.5% of 100.625 to be paid

109.5/100 × 100.625

= 110.184375

Around $110

Answer 2

Answer:

$92.33

Step-by-step explanation:

You take 143.75 and multiply by .3 to find the amount you will discount from 145.75, to get 102.025. Then multiply that by .095 to get 9.692375. Subtract that from 102.025 to get 92.33.
