Question

Nabhitha has a loyalty card good for a 20% discount at her local pharmacy. What would her total in dollars and cents be, after the discount and before tax, if the total cost of all the items she wants to buy is $18.30? Round to the nearest cent.

Answer 1

1464 cents

Explanation:

total bill = $18.30

discount = 20%

20% of 18.30 = 18.30 * 20/100 = 3.66

bill after the discount = $18.30 - $3.66 = $14.64

$1 = 100 cents

$14.64 = 14.64 * 100 cents

= 1464 cents
