2. Your friend shows you how to calculate the cost of an item including tax using several steps. You tell her that you can do the calculation in one step. Show how you would do this.
Example:
item - $200
taxes - 5 % + 7 % = 12 %
200 x 1.12 = $224
taxes - 5 % + 7 % = 12 %
200 x 1.12 = $224
4. Chris purchased the following items:
• 2 binders at $4.99 each
• 1 math set for $3.99
• a backpack for $19.99
Find the total cost including 5% GST
and 7% PST. (12 %)
4.99 (2) + 3.99 + 19.99 = 33.96
33.96 x 1.12 = $38.04
33.96 x 1.12 = $38.04
6. A store discounted items by 50% off the
original price one week. The following
week an additional 10% was taken off the
already reduced price. The regular price
of a CD player was $85.00. What is the
reduced price in the second week?
