Televisions are on sale for 40% OFF the original price of $600. After tax (8.5%) is applied, what is the final price?

First, determine what is 40% of $600. Multiple 40 (as a decimal) by 600.

0.4 x 600 = 240

Therefore, the discount is $240 off $600.

Subtract the two values to find price (before tax): 600 - 240 = 360

So the TV will cost $360 before tax.

The tax is 8.5%. Multiply 8.5 as a decimal by 360 to find the amount of tax added.

0.085 x 360 = 30.6

Add 30.6 and the price before tax to find the final price.

30.6 + 360 = 390.60

Therefore, the final price of the TV is $390.60

step-by-step explanation:   divide the numerator by the denominator to get the decimal

it would still be 193

if divide by 100 then 1.93
