While visiting friends in Brookfield, Janet bought a bike lock that was marked down 20% from an original price of $8.75. If the sales tax in Brookfield is 7%, what was the total cost of the bike lock?

Answer:

7.49

Step-by-step explanation:

Well first you have to find how much the bike lock cost.

8.75 x 0.2

1.75 = how much 20% of 8.75 is

8.75-1.75

7 = the cost of the bike lock with the 20% markdown

Now you have to find the sales tax.

7 x 0.07

0.49

7 + 0.49

7.49 = total cost with all the stuff

Hopefully this was helpful. There is a shorter method too tho.
