4. A store charges 15% ABST on all sales. What is the total cost of a shirt marked $60?
To calculate the total cost of a shirt marked for $60 with a 15% ABST, you need to first calculate how much the ABST will be.
15% of $60 = $9
Therefore, the ABST on the shirt is $9.
To find the total cost of the shirt with the ABST included, you simply add the ABST to the marked price:
$60 + $9 = $69
So the total cost of the shirt with ABST included is $69.
