Claire for to a show sale. everything on the shelf is 35% off the marked price. she falls in love with a pair of red heels that are marked $64.99. if the sales tax is 7.5%, what will the total cost be.?

Percentage of discount on the Marked price = 35%
Marked price of the pair of red heels that Claire falls in love with = $64.99
Then
Amount of discount on the
marked price of the pair of red heels = (35/100) * 64.99 dollars
                                                           = 0.35 * 64.99 dollars
                                                           = 22.746 dollars
                                                           = 22.75 dollars
Then
Price of the red heels after discount = (64.99 - 22.75) dollars
                                                           = 42.24 dollars
Percentage of sales tax that needs to be given by Claire = 7.5%
Amount of sales tax that needs to be given by Claire = (7.5/100) * 42.24 dollars
                                                                                     = 316.80/100 dollars
                                                                                     = 3.168 dollars
                                                                                     = 3.17 dollars
Then
The total price of the
red heels that Claire has to pay = (42.24 + 3.17) dollars
                                                   = 45.41 dollars
So Claire has to pay a total of $45.41 for the pair of red heels she has fallen in love with.
