Mikaela purchased a paddleboard originally priced at $899. If all merchandise was on sale for 40% off and the state tax rate is 7.25%, what is the total amount that Mikaela spent on the paddleboard?

Sagot :

Answer:

The percentage is defined as a ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.

We have been given that Mikaela purchased a paddleboard originally priced at $899. If all merchandise was on sale for 40% off and the state tax rate is 7.25%.

Original cost = $899

Discount = 40% = 0.40

State tax rate = 7.25% = 0.0725

Total amount = Original cost × (1 - Discount) × (1 + State tax)

Total amount = 899×(1 - 40%)×(1 + 7.25%)

Total amount = 899×(1 - 0.40)×(1 + 0.0725)

Total amount = 578.506
