Find the final price of the item below, given that the tax will be applied to the discounted price. Original price of a sweater: $15.95 Discount: 27% Tax: 6%

Solution

Discounted price = 15.95 * 73 /100

= 11.6435

Tax = 11.6435 * 6 / 100 = 0.69861

Total price = discounted price + tax

= 11.6435 + 0.69861

= 12.34
