Question

A dress listed from $119 is discounted 25%. What is the sale price of the dress including a 7 1/2 state sales tax?

Answer 1

Discount = 25%
Selling price =$119
0.75x119=$89.25
Sales tax=7.5%
89.25x(100+7.5)%
=$95.94

Answer 2

If it is discounted 25%, then u r actually paying 75%

0.75(119) = 89.25 (without tax)

sales tax = 7 1/2% = 7.5% = 0.075
89.25(1.075) = $ 95.94 <===
