Question 13 • Financial Math

A vitamin order club offers 10 percent off purchases for auto shipping and charges 8 percent of the total cost for shipping. If an energy boosting package cost 88 dollars , what is the final cost after discount and shipping?

Answer
A
95 point 0 4 dollars
B
85 point 5 4 dollars
C
89 point 0 6 dollars
D
79 point 2 0 dollars

Explanation

First take 10% off $88: $88 × 0.90 = $79.20. Then add shipping equal to 8% of the discounted cost: $79.20 × 1.08 = $85.536, which rounds to $85.54. The final cost is $85.54.
