Question

A jacket usually sells for $60.00. If the jacket is 30% off, and sales tax is 5%, what is the total price of the jacket, including tax?

Answer 1

$44.10

Answer 2

55 $

Answer 3

Work in order of the selling price, and add tax on it.
Selling price = regular price *(1-discount)
=60*(1-0.30)=$42
Total price = selling price *(1+tax rate)
=$42*(1.05) = $44.10
