Answer:
how are we supposed to know that
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If you are saving 25%, you are still paying 75%, right? So the cost of the TV with a discount of 25% is 192.74(.75) which is $144.56
That's the cost of the TV on sale. Now we need to find the sales tax amount, if the sales tax is .05 as a decimal. We are paying $144.56 for the TV, which is 100% of the cost. On top of that, we are paying another 5%. So altogether, for the TV, we are paying 105% of the TV. Therefore,
144.56(1.05) = $151.79
If you would like to know what is the answer for 6 - 7/8, you can calculate this using the following steps:
6 - 7/8 = 48/8 - 7/8 = (48 - 7) / 8 = 41/8 = 5 1/8 = 5.125
The correct result would be 41/8 or 5 1/8.
