45% of 480

= 45/100 x 480

= 0.45x480

=216

=480-216

=264

8% of 264

= 8/100 x 264

= 0.08 x 264

= 21.12

= 264 + 21.12

=285.12

Therefore, he paid $285 and 12 cents

Answer:

285.12

Step-by-step explanation:

discount amount = 45/100 x 480= 45x48/10

=216.0

price after discount= 480-216=264

sales tax= 8/100 x 264=21.12

total money spent = 264+21.12=285.12
