Aclearance rack is marked as 35% off the regular price. a shirt on the clearance rack has a regular price of $45.99. if there is 7.25% sales tax, what will the shirt ring up for at the register? a. $17.26 b. $21.67 c. $29.89 d. $32.06

It would ring up for $32.06. To find that answer, first you would have to calculate the discount. To do so you can multiply 45.99 times .65 (100%-35%=65% which in decimal form equals .65). That gives you an answer of $29.89 BEFORE sales tax. To add the sales tax, find the decimal of the percent tax (7.25% = .0725) and add it to one (1.075) and multiply that by the clearance price (29.89X1.075). That gives you a final answer of $32.06. Hope this helps!
