Hey!

---------------------------------------

Original Price: $60

40% off and 8% sales tax.

---------------------------------------

Steps:

Convert 40% to a decimal:

40% = 0.40

Multiply 60 and 0.4 to get the sale:

60 x 0.4 = $24 (discount)

Subtract 60 and 24 to get the discounted price: (Before Tax)

60 - 24 = $36 (discount price)

Convert 8% to a decimal:

8% = 0.08

Multiply 36 and 0.08 to get the sales tax:

36 x 0.08 = $2.88 (sales tax)

Add 36 and 2.88 to get the price with sales tax:

36 + 2.88 = $38.88

---------------------------------------

Answer:

The total price of the toaster oven is $38.88 including tax.
