Answer:
- The first mistake was in not taking 18% off the iPad price. A second mistake was in using an incorrect value for the sales tax multiplier. Those two mistakes together are why the answer is incorrect.
- ($575 +0.82·2·499)·1.08875 = $1517.02
Step-by-step explanation:
iPads are 18% off on the day of purchase, so they should be charged at ...
100% -18% = 82%
of full price. The sum shown includes two iPads at $499 each, without any discount. The total price is too high by $179.64.
The tax rate is given as 8.875%, so the multiplier on price will be ...
100% +8.875% = 108.875% = 1.08875
The multiplier used by the student in the problem is 1.0875, so is too low.
_____
A correct computation could be written as ...
($575 + 2×499×0.82)×1.08875 ≈ $1517.02

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
EXAMPLE #1:
What number is 75% of 4? (or Find 75% of 4.)
The PERCENT always goes over 100.
(It's a part of the whole 100%.)
4 appears with the word of:
It's the WHOLE and goes on the bottom.
A proportion showing one fraction with PART as the numerator and 4 as the denominator equal to another fraction with 75 as the numerator and 100 as the denominator.
We're trying to find the missing PART (on the top).
In a proportion the cross-products are equal: So 4 times 75 is equal to 100 times the PART.
The missing PART equals 4 times 75 divided by 100.
(Multiply the two opposite corners with numbers; then divide by the other number.)
4 times 75 = 100 times the part
300 = 100 times the part
300/100 = 100/100 times the part
3 = the part
A proportion showing the denominator, 4, times the diagonally opposite 75; divided by 100.
