Question 265575: Monica goes to the store to buy an MP3 player. She finds one that originally $79.50, but there is a 25% off sale the day she goes. If there is a 9% sales tax on all items, what would Monica actually end up paying for this MP3 player? Answer by checkley77(12844) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 79.50-.25*79.50
79.50-19.88=59.62 IS THE REDUCED PRICE.
59.62+.09*59.62
59.62+5.37=64.99 IS THE TOTAL PRICE AFTER THE DISCOUNT & THE ADDED TAX.
