Answer:
The top tag price you could pay for the shorts = $32.71....
Step-by-step explanation:
Total amount = $ 60.00
Cost of jacket = $25.50
Sales tax = 7% = .07
First of all find the total price of the jacket including sales tax.
25.50* .07 = 1.79( this is the sales tax)
Now add this sales tax into the original price.
25.5 + 1.79 = 27.29
Total price of a jacket = $27.29
Now subtract the total amount by the amount of the jacket.
$60.00 - $27.29 = $32.71
Thus the top tag price you could pay for the shorts = $32.71....
