Answer:
The Total of Charlie's will be $7.16.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Charlie and his friend Jay went to the fair. They were having a sale and the admission was 25% off.
Price of regular ticket = $9.00.
tax = 6%.
We need to find Charlie’s total.
So we will first find the price of regular ticket with 25% off.
25% percent of regular ticket = [tex]\frac{25}{100}\times 9 = \$2.25[/tex]
Discounted Price of regular ticket will be equal to Price of regular ticket minus Discounted amount.
Discounted Price of regular ticket = 9 - 2.25 = $6.75
Now, including tax :
Tax paid will be on discounted amount.
Hence Amount paid in tax = [tex]6\% \times 6.75= \frac{6}{100}\times 6.75 = \$0.405[/tex]
Total amount paid by charlie is equal to sum of Discounted Price of regular ticket and Amount paid in tax
Total Amount paid by charlie = [tex]6.75+0.405 =\$7.155 \approx \$7.16[/tex]
Therefore, the total of Charlie's will be $7.16.
