A jacket's original price is $65.00. It is on sale for 40% off. You have to pay 5% sales tax. What is the final price of the jacket?
I'd do it this way.
0.4 * 65 = 26
65 - 26 = 39 sale price
39 * 1.05 = 40.95 final price with tax
40% = 0.4
* = multiply
There is a confusion
So the proportion would be $65/40% = x/5% right

O_o......?
Ok, but I would like it in proportion so that it would be easier for me to understand.
Ms. Sue I don't get this how in the world did you do that.
wow...CONFUSION TO THE HIGH HEAVEN!!!!!!

Ok thanks
Ms. Sue there is a mistake, 5% is 0.05, but you put 1.05 there is a typo.
