SOLVING PROBLEMS INVOLVING DISCOUNTS AT SALES AND SALES TAX.
3
First find out what tax rate you will be paying. In Peoria the tax rate is 8.25%! Convert your percentage to a decimal by moving your decimal two spaces to the left. Ex. 8.25% =. 0825 (Don’t forget to add a zero) Multiply the decimal form of the tax rate by the price of the item you are purchasing. Ex..0825 x $ cost of the item
4
So if an item costs $5.00 Sales tax is 8.25% Convert 8.25% to.0825 So.0825 x $5 = $.41 The sales tax is $.41 But the total price of the item is $5.00 + $.41 = $5.41
5
1. Find out the % of the discount. Convert the % to a decimal. 2. Multiply the decimal by the original price. 3. Take the answer in step 2 and subtract it from the original price. Example 1) Discount 20% =.20, 2) $10 x.20 = $2.00 3) $10.00 - $2.00 = $8.00

Which is the better deal? When shopping, you have to learn how to compare prices, which are often advertised with percentages. Can you figure out which store is offering the better sale?

Find the discount and sales price. Round to the nearest cent. Regular Price: $415.38 % of Discount: 15% Regular Price: $3880.00 % of Discount: 12.5% Regular Price: $65.40 % of Discount: 6% Regular Price: $36.37 % of Discount: 1%

To find the percent that a discount is work backwards. Divide the discount by the regular price. Convert the decimal into a percent. A computer is discounted $980 off of the purchase price of $2450. What percent discount is it? Jenny has a $49.08 off coupon on a purchase of $75.50. What percent off does she get on her purchase?
