The University Bookstore offers a 6% discount on all texts ordered by June 30. Katherine ordered her books on June 28 and paid a total of $421.56. If Katherine had ordered her books on July 2, how much would she have paid? Round your answer to the nearest cent.

Hey I’m from the U.K., I’m a bit more comfortable using the pound sign so just change back to dollars for your answer.

£421.5 = 100% (NO DISCOUNT)

100% - 6% = 94 % (WITH DISCOUNT)

£421.56 / 100 = £4.2156 (1%)

Multiply by 94

£4.2156 X 94 = £396.2664

To round this up, you would go to:
£396.27

So the answer is: £396.27 ($396.27)
