Raphael purchases a new DVD at M-Mart. He pays 8% in tax on the cost of the DVD. If the tax
amount is $1.20, how much does Raphael
spend on the DVD, including tax?

The amount Raphael spend on DVD including tax is $16.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Tax on DVD = 8%

Amount of tax = $1.20

We need to find the amount Raphael spend on DVD including tax.

Let the cost of DVD = x

We can write the equation:

Because the tax amount is 8% of actual cost and is equal to 1.20

Now solving to find x:

So, the cost of DVD = $15

Now, The amount Raphael spend on DVD including tax = Cost of DVD + Tax

The amount Raphael spend on DVD including tax = 15 + 1.2

                                                                                    = 16.2

So, The amount Raphael spend on DVD including tax is $16.2

answer: 42

use a calculator to find that 845/73 = 11.575

the whole part of the answer is 11. multiply this by 73 to get 11*73 = 803.

subtract that result from 845 to get 845 - 803 = 42

the answer is ! ?
