an item originally costs 16.95 and is on sale for 22% off the original price. the sales tax is 6.5%.find the cost of the item. explain each step.

16.95 * .22 = $3.73 Calculate how much off you are getting

16.95 - 3.73 = 13.22 Calculate your total price before tax.
13.22 * .065 = 0.86 Calculate the tax

Now calculate the final price

13.22 + .86 =14.08 Final price
