Sneakers were on sale for 25%off their original price. Lola bought a pair of sneakers that has an original price of $43.00. She also paid a sales tx of 7.25% on the sale price of the sneakers.How much did Lola pay for the pair of sneakers? Round to the nearest cent.

Please help me so far all i understood what to do was:

25/100 = x/43.00
100x/100 = 1075/100
x = 10.75

1.0725 * .75 * 43

Thank you!

To find out how much Lola paid for the pair of sneakers, we need to calculate the sale price of the sneakers first.

Let's calculate the amount of discount Lola received on the original price of $43.00.

Discount = 25% of $43.00
Discount = (25/100) * $43.00
Discount = $10.75

Now, we can calculate the sale price of the sneakers by subtracting the discount from the original price.

Sale Price = Original Price - Discount
Sale Price = $43.00 - $10.75
Sale Price = $32.25

Next, we need to calculate the sales tax on the sale price.

Sales Tax = 7.25% of the sale price
Sales Tax = (7.25/100) * $32.25
Sales Tax = $2.34

Finally, to find out how much Lola paid for the sneakers, we need to add the sale price and the sales tax.

Total Amount Paid = Sale Price + Sales Tax
Total Amount Paid = $32.25 + $2.34
Total Amount Paid = $34.59

Therefore, Lola paid $34.59 for the pair of sneakers.
