Matt is purchasing a new tablet computer at a 20% markdown. After the discount is taken, the tablet is subject to a 6% state sal
es tax. How would you find the total amount Matt must pay after the markdown and tax? Multiply the original price by 0.86.
First find the 20% markdown price and the tax on the original price, and then add the new price to the tax.
Find the tax, and then take 80% off the tax and the original price.
First find the 20% markdown price and subtract it from the original price. Then find 6% of the discounted price to get the tax. The tax plus the discounted price is the final price.
