The original price of a shirt is $16.00. The price of the shirt is discounted by 20%, then a 4% sales tax is added.
What is the FINAL price of the shirt after the discount is taken and the tax is added? Round to the nearest penny.
To find the price after the 20% discount, we first need to calculate 20% of $16.00:
20% of $16.00 = 0.20 * $16.00 = $3.20
Subtract this discount from the original price to get the discounted price:
$16.00 - $3.20 = $12.80
Now, calculate the 4% sales tax on the discounted price:
4% of $12.80 = 0.04 * $12.80 = $0.51
Add this tax to the discounted price to get the final price:
$12.80 + $0.51 = $13.31
Therefore, the final price of the shirt after the discount is taken and the tax is added is $13.31.
