A CD usually sells for $11.00. If the CD is 20% off, and sales tax is 5%, what is the total price of the CD, including tax?

A$9.24
B$9.35
C$9.33
D$8.66

Verified Answer :

$11.00 * 20% = 2.2

$11.00 - $2.2 = $8.8 (20% off)
$8.8 * 5% = $0.44 (tax 5%)

Total
$8.8 + $0.44 = $9.24

answer is A. $9.24 

$11.00 multiplied by 0.20=2.20, then you subtract 11.00-2.20=$8.80, now you add the sales tax $8.80 X 0.05=0.44 <--that's cents, now you add $8.80 + 0.44=$9.24 ---answer A hopes this helps
