Answer:
$285.12
Step-by-step explanation:
first, we'll solve for the 45% sale.
45/100
0.45 x 480
= 216
subtract from the original price
480 - 216
= 264
now we'll solve for the 8%
8/100
0.08 x 264
= 21.12
add the 45% and 8%
264 + 21.12 = 285.12
So the first thing you want to do when faced with two fractions with different denominators (when subtracting or adding) is to make the denominators the same. So for this equation they would turn out to be p+10/16=15/16 (because 16 is the lowest common denominator, 8 times two) so then you want to subtract 10/16 from 15/16 to isolate the variable (p) which would get:
p=5/16
This is the final answer because it cannot be simplified.
Hope this helps!

Sarah sold 66 posters
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let "a" be the number of shirts sold
Let "b" be the number of posters sold
<em><u>Sarah sold a total of 178 t shirts and posters at a festival</u></em>
Therefore,
number of shirts sold + number of posters sold = 178
a + b = 178 ----------- eqn 1
<em><u>She sold 46 more tshirts than poster</u></em>
Number of shirts sold = 46 + number of posters sold
a = 46 + b --------- eqn 2
<em><u>Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1</u></em>
46 + b + b = 178
2b = 178 - 46
2b = 132
b = 66
Thus she sold 66 posters
