A. The total of the car price plus upgrades is $21,345 + $2,500 = $23,845.
B. To find 7% of the total in part A, we can use the proportion method.
Let x represent the total in part A.
7% of x can be expressed as:
7/100 = x/100 (since we are finding a percentage)
Cross multiplying, we get:
100x = 7 * (23,845)
100x = 166,915
Dividing both sides by 100, we get:
x = 166,915/100
x = 1,669.15
So, 7% of the total in part A is $1,669.15.
C. The total of Sophia's loan with upgrades INCLUDING sales tax will be the total in part A plus the sales tax.
Sales tax = 7% of $23,845 = 0.07 * $23,845 = $1,669.15 (from part B)
Total loan with upgrades INCLUDING sales tax = $23,845 + $1,669.15
Rounding to the nearest whole number, the total loan with upgrades INCLUDING sales tax is $25,514.
