Answer:

75.26

Step-by-step explanation:

Most sales taxes work by not being calculated until cash in some form changes hands. So you take the discount first and then you add the sales tax on the new amount.

Take the discount first

Original cost = 79.74

Discount amount = 79.74 * 12% = 79.74 * 12/100 = 9.57

New price = 79.74 - 9.57 = 70.17

Now you are ready to add on the sales tax

70.17 * 7.25/100 = 5.09

The total is 70.17 + 5.09 = 75.26

Answer:

135,000 times

Step-by-step explanation:

I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.  Please have a look at the attached photo.

<u>We need to know the size of your bakery store. </u>

As we can see, the entire shopping center is:  45000 square feet and your shop is 1/10 of that space

=> Your shop area is: 45000*1/10 = 4500 square feet

In the question, they want to know how many thirtieths of the space does it take up, so let say thirtieths in numerical is: 1/30

Hence, the number of thirtieths it takes:

\frac{Area}{Thirtieths} = \frac{4500}{\frac{1}{30} } = 135,000 times

Hope it will find you well.
