Question

You are at a home improvement store to purchase a freezer. There is currently a sale on appliances for 15% off. The freezer you want to purchase is $749.99. How much is the freezer given that sales tax is 7%?

Answer 1

$682.11
749.99•15% or .15=112.50
So 749.99-112.50=$637.49 and
637.49 • 7% or .07= 44.62 and
44.62+637.49=$682.11
