( round each answer to the nearest cent )

What is the final price of the dictionary including tax??

Respuesta :

Answer:

$7.18

Step-by-step explanation:

16.50 x 0.6 = 9.9 (multiplying by percent to find the total amount off)

16.50 - 9.9 = 6.6 (subtracting the amount of money you would get off from the original price)

6.6 x 0.0875 =  0.58 (rounded) (multiplied by the tax percentage to find how much tax would cost)

6.60 + 0.58 = 7.18 (add the sale price and sales tax)

$7.18 (final answer)
