Find 35% of 35. First, turn 35% into a decimal by dividing by 100.
35% ⇒ 0.35
Now multiply 0.35 by 35.
35 × 0.35 = 12.25
Subtract 12.25 from 35 to find the discounted price of the lamp.
35 - 12.25 = 22.75
Now find the amount of sales tax by repeating the first two steps but with 8% and 22.75.
8% ⇒ 0.08
Multiply 0.08 by 22.75.
22.75 × 0.008 = 1.82
The tax is $1.82, now we need to add it to 22.75.
22.75 + 1.82 = 24.57
The total price for the lamp is $24.57.
