Question

A.) Jon’s total at Trader Joe’s was $37.52. He had a coupon for a 25% off. What was the new total?

Answer 1

Answer: $30.67

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to take off 25% of his total. That's the same as multiplying it by .75.

37.52 × 0.75 = $28.14

Now you have to add on the 9% sales tax. That's the same as multiplying by 109%, or 1.09.

28.14 × 1.09 = $30.67

Hope that helps!
