Mark has $175 to spend on school clothes. He buys 4 shirts for $24 each, 2 pairs of shorts for $18 each, and 2 pairs of pants for $22.50 each. The shirts are discounted 20%. If the tax rate is 6%, how much money will Mark have remaining after buying these items?

$7.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

total money = $175

He buys 4 shirts for $24 each= 24*4= $96

The shirts are discounted 20%

= 96- 0.2*96= 96-19.2= $76.8

2 pairs of shorts for $18 each= $36

2 pairs of pants for $22.50 each= $45

Total cost = $157.8

tax= 6%

total expenses

= 157.8+ 0.06*157.8

=157.8+9.468

=$167.268

The balance is

= 175-167.268

=$7.7
