90/135 = 0.666666667
0.666 x 100 = 66.6 %
Answer:
$30.21
Step-by-step explanation:
100% -25%= 75%
Discounted price of the book
= 75% ×$38
= $28.50
Since the customer must pay an additional 6% of the discounted price,
percentage of discounted price paid
= 100% +6%
= 106%
Total amount paid
= 106% × $28.50
= $30.21

Alternative working:
Original selling price= $38
Since the book is discounted 25%,
100% ----- $38
1% ----- $0.38
75% ----- 75 ×$0.38= $28.50
Since the sales tax is based on the discounted price, we let the discounted price be 100%.
100% ----- $28.50
1% ----- $0.285
106% ----- 106 ×$0.285= $30.21
∴ The total amount the customer pays for the discounted book is $30.21.
