If the original price is $14.99 and the discount is 20% and the taxes is 8.25 what is the original price after taxes

Hello!

So, the original price of something is $14.99. There is a discount of 20% on the price.
A discount is a deduction of money from the cost of something (you save money).

This means we'll have to find 20% of the price and then subtract it.

First, convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing it by 100.

20% ÷ 100 = 0.20

Now, multiply the price by this decimal.

14.99 × 0.20 = 2.998

Subtract it:

14.99 - 2.998 = 11.992

So, the discounted price is $11.992. Now, we need to find how much the sales tax is and add that onto the cost.

8.25 ÷ 100 = 0.0825

11.992 × 0.0825 = 0.98934

11.992 + 0.98934 = 12.98134

This can be rounded to 12.98.

ANSWER:

The final price is $12.98.

The answer would be $68.04
