Question 20 • [PERFIN] Personal Finance, Sem 2 (26-27)

While out shopping, Lebron sees a sign for print tees advertised at 3 for $35 or $15 each. Lebron decides to buy 2 print tees. If the sales tax is 8%, how much more would Lebron have had to pay if he would have purchased 3 print tees?

Answer
A
$2.60
B
$4.60
C
$5.00
D
$5.40

Explanation

Two tees cost 2 × $15 = $30 before tax, while three tees cost $35. The difference is $5 before tax; adding 8% sales tax gives $5 × 1.08 = $5.40. The correct choice is $5.40.
