Question

Dwayne wants to buy a bowling ball that has a price of $120. As a member of a bowling league, he is entitled to a 15% discount off the price of the bowling ball. He will also have to pay 6% sales tax on the discounted price of the bowling ball. Identify the final price Dwayne has to pay for the bowling ball. Enter your numeric answer with no label.

Answer 1

108.12 bc it says don't use a label

Explanation:

15% can be written as 0.15. Same thing.

So first the discount:

120 x 0.15 = $18

He'll get an $18 discount.

120-18 = $102. That's the discounted price he'll pay.

6% tax can be written as 0.06.

$102 x 0.06 = $6.12 That's the tax he needs to pay

So in total he'll pay $102 + $6.12 = $108.12

Your question says no label so just answer 108.12.

Answer 2

Answer:108.12$

Explanation:

Dwayne will get a discount of 15% on the price of the bowling ball which is $120. The discount will be $18. So the price of the bowling ball after the discount is $102.

Dwayne will have to pay 6% sales tax on the discounted price of the bowling ball which is $102. The sales tax will be $6.12.

Therefore, the final price Dwayne has to pay for the bowling ball is $108.12.
