Amanda purchased a pair of shoes for $32.00 and two blouses for $15.00 each. If the sales tax is 8.5%, what was the total
amount Amanda paid?

3.68

Hopefully is helps

$67.27

Step-by-step explanation:

Add: $15.00+$15.00 : $30.00. Because she purchased two of them.

Then add the total to $32.00, which = $62.00.

Writing the proportion: 8.5/100  x/62.00

Multiply the sales tax by your total amount = 8.5*62.00=527.00

Then divide it by 100= 527.00/100= $5.27. <-- ( sales tax amount )

Add the sales tax to $62.00 = 67.27

$67.27

1/4 and 8/3 because:

the reciprocal if 4 is 1/4 because 4 is used as 4/1 and the opposite of that is 1/4. the opposite of 3/8 is 8/3 so that is the answer.
