Super legend this is still a hard question but im trying to get rid of my points i like to stay at the bottom of the point list,

is this one ok. I did have this as a question on a quiz before.
Three men go to stay at a motel, and the man at the desk charges them $30.00 for a room. They split the cost ten dollars each. Later the manager tells the desk man that he overcharged the men, that the actual cost should have been $25.00. The manager gives the bellboy $5 and tells him to give it to the men.

The bellboy, however, decides to cheat the men and pockets $2.00, giving each of the men only one dollar.

Now each man has paid $9.00 to stay in the room and 3 x $9.00 = $27.00. The bellboy has pocketed $2.00. $27.00 + $2.00 = $29.00 - so where is the missing $1.00?

$3 went to the men and and $2 to the bellboy. That's $5 in total, which is what the bellboy was supposed to give the men. So the $1 is with one of the men.

An item sells for $30 and is on sale for 15% off and the sales tax is 8.2%. What is the final cost to the nearest cent? (Calcula
mestny [16]

Answer:

$27.59

Step-by-step explanation:

You multiply 30 dollars by 0.85 (1-0.15, with the 0.15 being for the 15 percent off). Which gets you to $25.50, and you then multiply it by 1.082 (the 1.082 being the tax, and the .082 part equating to the 8.2% tax percentage).
