Charlie bought a $60 radio on sale 5%-off.how much did he pay including 5% sales tax?
A) $54.15 B) $557.00
C) %57.75 D) %59.85

Answer 1

The answer is D, $59. 85.
First, you calculate the price of the radio, which is originally $60 but is 5% off, so you pay 95% of the original price.
\[60 \times .95 = $57\]
Second, you calculate the price after the 5% sales tax to get your final answer.
\[$57 \times 1.05 =$59.85\]
