Question

mr.sketchers bought a new pair of shoes. the cost is $120. the shoes are discounted 15%. the store charges 7% sales tax. how much was the discount

Answer 1

The total cost of the shoes were $94.86

Work:

Step 1: 120 x .15 = 18

Step 2: 120 - 18 = 102

Step 3: 102 x 0.07 = 7.14

Step 4: 102 - 7.14 = 94.86

Hope this helps!
