A pair of shoes usually sells for $69. If the shoes are 30% off, and sales tax is 6%, what is the total price of the shoes, including tax?





$51.68





$47.54





$54.86





$51.20

Answer 1

so how do you think you should approach this?

Answer 2

You need to do two things.
First, you need to take off 30% from the regular price of $69.
Then you need to add 6% to the discounted price.

Answer 3

Do you know how to increase a price by a percentage or decrease it by a percentage?

Answer 4

you have the initial value of 69$, and it is 30% off, so you want to find 30% of 69 dolars

Answer 5

the of is a multiplication sign and 30% is .3

Answer 6

you want to multiply to initial ammount by the percentage as a decimal

Answer 7

that will give you the discounted ammount so you would subtract that value from 69$

Answer 8

no answers flowers

Answer 9

then once you find that discounted price \[69\times.3\], you need tosubtract that from 69. the you have your sale price value without the sales tax.

Answer 10

Answer 13

yea so thats your value you subtract from 69

Answer 14

Once you have that value you need to multiply that by .06. and add that value to the discounted price.

Answer 15

\[part 1) 69\times.3=x...part 2) 69-x=y... part 3)y \times.06=z...part4)y+z=discouted price\]
