Answer:
Total items = $39.90
Sales tax amount = $3.7905
Total cost = $43.691
The clerk's error is using 9.5 as sales tax amount instead of finding 9.5% of the total items
Step-by-step explanation:
Dress = $24.95
Skirt = $14.95
steps the clerk completed.
Step 1: 24.95 + 14.95 = 39.90
Step 2: 39.90 +9.5 = 49.40
Correct steps:
Total items = dress + skirt
= $24.95 + $14.95
= $39.90
Sales tax = 9.5%
Sales tax amount = 9.5% of total
= 9.5/100 × $39.90
= 0.095 × 39.90
= $3.7905
Total cost = Total + sales tax amount
= $39.90 + $3.7905
= $43.6905
To the nearest hundredth
= $43.691
