Answer:
$8.80
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the new price, you need to add 60% of the original price (5.50) to the original price. You have two options:
1) multiply $5.50*0.6 to get 60% of the original price. You would get $3.30. Then add $3.30+$5.50, which equals $8.80. This way takes longer but shows you all the steps.
2) The shorter way is to simply multiply $5.50*1.6, which also equals $8.80. This works because the "1" automatically adds the 5.50 to 60% of the original price, this way you don't have to multiply then add.
If you don't understand how the second way works or your teacher taught you #1, just do it the first way.
--8+4+6=2
Hope it helps :-)
It would take 4750 because 1L is 5000 ml and 5000-250=4750. Use the web to do it in metric measurements.
8517/1000
or 8 and 517/1000
Part A:
Price before tax: $49.99
Discount: 50% of $49.99 = 50% * $49.99 = 0.50 * $49.99 = $25.00
Discounted price: $49.99 - $25.00 = $24.99
Tax on discounted price: 8% of $24.99 = 8% * $24.99 = 0.08 * $24.99 = $2.00
Part B:
Total price: $24.99 + $2.00 = $26.99
