To calculate the answers to these questions, we need to understand and apply some basic mathematical concepts. Let's break down each problem step by step:
1. Calculating the price of the shirt after a discount:
- The original price of the shirt is $19.
- You receive a discount of 40% off the original price.
- To find the discounted price, you need to calculate 40% of $19 and subtract it from the original price.
- Multiply $19 by 40% (which is 0.40): $19 * 0.40 = $7.60.
- Subtract the result from the original price: $19 - $7.60 = $11.40.
Therefore, you paid $11.40 for the shirt. Option (d) $11.40 is the correct answer.
2. Calculating the commission on a $1,250 sale with a commission rate of 5:
- The commission rate is 5%, which means you will receive 5% of the total sale amount.
- To find the commission, you need to calculate 5% of $1,250.
- Multiply $1,250 by 5% (which is 0.05): $1,250 * 0.05 = $62.50.
Therefore, the commission on the $1,250 sale is $62.50. Option (a) $62.50 is the correct answer.
3. Calculating the total amount of Ben's desk purchase with a sales tax rate of 6.25%:
- The price of the desk is $249.99.
- The sales tax rate is 6.25%, which means the tax amount is calculated as a percentage of the price.
- To find the sales tax amount, you need to calculate 6.25% of $249.99.
- Multiply $249.99 by 6.25% (which is 0.0625): $249.99 * 0.0625 = $15.62.
- Add the tax amount to the original price: $249.99 + $15.62 = $265.61.
Therefore, the total amount of Ben's desk purchase is $265.61. Option (c) $265.61 is the correct answer.
