Please help no links. Mr. Longley is buying a $15 box of trail mix at Whole Foods, where tax is 6%. If Mr. Longley has a coupon for 10% off the price of any item, how much does he end up paying?
I

$14.40

Step-by-step explanation:

my way of doing things:

15/100=0.15=1%of total amount

0.15 x 6=0.9= the 6% which is the tax

0.15 x 10 = 1.5=the coupon

Take the coupon amount $1.50 minus the tax amount $0.90 =$0.60. Because the coupon amount is greater than the tax the 60 cents gets taken away from the original 15 dollars leaving Mr. Longely only having to pay $14.40.
