Question

Amy bought a necklace that had an original price of $20. She used a 30% off coupon. The tax rate was 7.5% (added after the discount). How much change will Amy get from a $20 bill?

Answer 1

I think that it’s 4.95

Answer 2

Answer: $4.95

20 • .30 = 6
20 - 6 = 14
14 • .075 = 1.05
14 + 1.05 = 15.05
20 - 15.05 = 4.95
