(PLEASE HELP)

To find 25% of something we are going to divide it by 4
97,899.99/4 = 24475.00(rounded to nearest 100th)
Since It is just a discount we are going to subtract 24475

97.899.99 - 24475 = 73424.99

Now we are going to find 3.75%
To make this easier we are going to multiply 3.75 by 4 so it is 15%

To again make this easier we are going to find 10% of 73424.99 (divide 73424 by 10)

10% of 73424.99 = 7342.50

Now we are going to find 5% to make it 15%

Divide 7342.50 by 2

7342.50/2 = 3671.25

Now we are going to add them together

3671.25 + 7342.50 = 11013.75

Therefore

15% of 73424.99 is 11013.75

We are now going to divide 11013.75 by 4 because we multiplied the 3.75 by 4

11013.75/4 = 2753.44

Now we are going to add this to the subtotal

73424.99 + 2753.44 = $76178.43

Hector paid a total of $76178.43
