Sam bought an $85.00 jacket for 40% off the regular price. after the discount, he has to pay a 6% tax. how much does he pay for the jacket?

( make sure you explain every step)

$54.06

Step-by-step explanation:

1. multiply $85 by 40% (85x0.40)

2. take your answer from above (34) and take that away from $85 which gives you $51

3. your sale price is $51  so multiply that by 6% (51x0.06)

4. take your answer from above ($3.06) and add that to the sale price of $51

which gives you $54.06 the total price paid
