Let the original price of the sweater be = X
Then the amount Jerome pays for the sweater after 20% discount = X - (20X/100)
= X - 0.2X
= 0.8X
Now on this price the 8.25% tax needs to be added to get to the amount actually paid by Jerome.
So,
0.8X + [(8.25/100) * (0.8X) = 25.1
This is the equation from which the actual price of the sweater bought by Jerome can be determined.
So
0.8X + [(.0825) * ( 0.8X) = 25.1
0.8X + 0.066X = 25.1
0.866X = 25.1
X = 25.1/0.866
= 28.98
So the actual price of the sweater is $28.98.

Find the common denominator for both unlike fractions.
EX: 1 2
12 8
The lowest common factor is both fractions is 24. Multiply both denominators to get 24.
Do not forget to multiply the numerators with the number you used to multiply the denominators together.
You do not have to multiply each side by the same number.
