Al bought a fishing pole for 60% off its original price of $97. If the tax was 4% (of the sale price), how much did Al pay for the fishing pole?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$40.35

Step-by-step explanation:

  • 60% off of the fishing poles price means Al payed for 40% of the original price. (So, you multiply 97 by .40 - And you get 38.8)
  • For the tax you multiply 38.8 times .04- You should get 1.552
  • Lastly, add 38.8 and 1.522 together.
