A clothing store has the sign shown in the shop window. Pani sees the sign and wants to buy 3 shirts and 2 pairs of jeans. The cost of each shirt is before the discount is $12, and the cost of each pair of jeans is $19 before the discount. Why are the amounts Pani pays in A and B different?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Given:
Shirt = $12
Pants = $19

Shirts = 3 * 12 = 36
Jeans = 2 * 19 = 38

Total cost = 36 + 38 = 74

If Pani has a discount of $3 per shirt and $3 per pair of jeans.

Shirts : 3 * (12-3) = 3 * 9 = 27
Jeans : 2 * (19-3) = 2 *16 = 32

Total cost w/ discounts = 27 + 32 = 59

If Pani paid $71, she got a discount of $3 from the total amount of $74. The discount given was from the total sales, not the price of each item.

Sign should state "$3 discount from total purchase".

Liz wants to buy a shirt for $25. How much will Liz's shirt cost in Springfield rounded up to the nearest cent? (show your work) the tax in Springfield if 4.1%

Answers

This is similar to the markup price question. The tax is 4.1% or .041. We need to add the tax to the original price of the shirt. We know that the shirt cost $25.00 and that's also the original price. To add the tax to it, we add the .041 to 1.00

The reason for this is because multiplying 25 by 1 will get you 25. So, we know that 1.00 is the original price as a percentage. We need to add .041 of 25 to itself. We can do that by adding the original percentage 1.00 to .041 and get 1.041 This means that we're getting the original price plus the tax added with it.

So, 1.041 × 25 = 26.025 which rounds to $26.03 Hope this helped!

Answer:

1.041 × 25 = 26.025 which rounds to $26.03
