777dan777 [17]

Answer: 7 packs of gum.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the total amount of the purchase is $8.82 and the individual price is $1.26, to find out how many packs Kareem purchased, we need to divide the total amount spent ($8.82) by the amount of each pack ($1.26), so:

8.82 ÷ 1.26 = 7

So, Kareem bought 7 packs of gum.

Martin finds a shirt on sale for 20% off at a department store. The original price was $20. Martin must also pay a 7.5% sales ta
mars1129 [50]

Answer: You will pay $13.52 for this shirt.

Step-by-step explanation: 0.9435

Since the tax is 7.5%, you have to multiply 12.58 by 7.5% to find the amount of money paid as tax.

7.5% = 0.075

12.58 x 0.075 = 0.9435

Since we are dealing with money we have to round to the nearest hundredth -- 0.9435 = 0.94

Then to find the final cost of the shirt, we have to add 12.58 and 0.94 to get  $13.52.
