Apair of shoes usually sells for $63. if the shoes are 20% off, and sales tax is 5%, what is the total price of the shoes, including tax?

Turn discount into a decimal.

20% = 0.2

Multiply.

63 * 0.2 = $12.60 (discount)

Subtract.

63 - 12.60 = $50.40 (discounted price)

Turn sales tax into a decimal.

5% = 0.05

Multiply.

50.40 * 0.05 = $2.52 (tax amount)

Add.

50.40 + 2.52 = $52.92

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!

i think there was a typo. you wrote pat brings 3 quarts of ice-cream to the party. each serving of ice-cream is 1 6 quart. how many total servings of ice-cream does pat bring to the party? i think the bold is supposed to be 1/6. so 1 quart of ice cream = 6 servings. 6 * 3 = 18.
