The original price of a computer is (p). It is on sale for 15% off.
15
If the original price of the computer is $235, what would be the price after the discount?
$ __________
$1$$2$$3$$4$$5$$6$$7$$8$$9$$0$$.$

The store must charge 10% sales tax on the computer after the discount. What is the final cost of the computer?
$ __________
$1$$2$$3$$4$$5$$6$$7$$8$$9$$0$$.$
The price after the 15% discount would be (1 - 0.15) * $235 = $199.75.
The sales tax is 10% of $199.75, which is (0.10) * $199.75 = $19.975.
The final cost of the computer would be $199.75 + $19.975 = $219.725.
So, the final cost of the computer is $219.73.
