Jordan wants to buy a bike that usually sells for $80.00. The store is having a sale and all merchandise is discounted by 20%. What is the total cost of the bike if Jordan pays 6 1/2% sales tax?

$68.16

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of the bike is $80. The store is doing a 20% discount.

Multiply 80 by 0.20.

80 × 0.20 = $16

Subtract 16 from 80 to get the price of the bike after the discount.

80 - 16 = $64

To calculate the sales tax, turn the percentage into a decimal and multiply by the cost of the item.

6.5% → 0.065

0.065 × 64 = $4.16

Add the sales tax to the cost of the item to get the total cost of the bike.

$4.16 + 64 = $68.16

The bike will cost $68.16.
