Bob goes shopping at his favorite store and finds a hat that is regularly priced at $40, but it is on sale for 20% off. The sales tax on the hat is 10% of the sale price. How much does Bob end up paying for the hat?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$35.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Marked price of hat = $40

Sale discount = 20%

discount in $ = 20% of $40 = 20/100 * 40 = $8

Thus, sale price = marked price - sale discount = $40 - $8 = $32

Now it is given that there is sales tax of 10%

This sales tax will be applied on sale price

thus,

sales tax in dollars = 10% of sale price of hat = 10/100 * $32 = $3.2

Total price paid for hat = Sale price+ sales tax = $32 +$3.2 = $35.2

Thus, Bob ended up paying $35.2 for the hat.
