Forrest bought a toaster that was discounted 15%. if the original price of the toaster was $14.99 and he paid 5% sales tax, what was his total at checkout?

The discount is 15%. This means that they paid 85% of the original price ( 100% - 15% = 85%)

Multiply the original price by 85% to find the discounted price:

14.99 x 0.85 = $12.74

Now multiply the discounted price by 5% to find the sales tax, then add that to the price:

12.74 x 0.05 = 0.637 = 0.64 ( amount of sales tax)

Total: 12.74 + 0.64 = $13.38
