Glenda lives in Ohio, which has a sales tax of 5.5%. She just bought a grill whose full price was $220, but she got 40% off, because the store was having a sale. What was the total amount that Glenda paid?
The grill is originally $220 dollars and she gets a discount of 40% so you need to find out what 40% of $220 is, it’s 88. Now you subtract the 88 from 220, 220-88=132. Next you have to figure out the tax part 5.5% of 132 is 7.26. For the last part you add both numbers together 132+7.26=139.26. So the answer is A) $139.26 :)
