Answers

  1. Answer:

    $54.66

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First change 20% to a decimal.

    Then multiply .20 * 64 = 12.80.

    Next do 64 – 12.80 = 51.20.

    Now change 6.75% to a decimal which would be 0.0675.

    Then do 0.0675 * 51.20 = 3.456.

    Now do 3.456 + 51.20  = $54.656.

    Then round it to nearst cent if needed. $54.66. And that is your answer.
