Question

You get 25% discount off a $465 TV as a special. The tax is 9%. How much is your final payment?

Answer 1

25% discount means you pay 75% of the cost.
Find how much the TV costs by finding 75% of $465.
Then, add tax. Tax = 9% means you multiply by 1.09 to find the total cost with tax included.
