Answer:
B 68.46
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the discount
Discount = original price * discount rate
= 97.99 * 1/3
=32.66
New price = original price - discount
= 97.99-32.66
=65.33
Now we need to determine the sales tax
tax = new price * tax rate
= 65.33 * .048
=3.13584
Round to the nearest cent
= 3.14
To get the final cost we add the tax to the new price
Final cost = new price + tax
=65.33 + 3.14
=68.47
They may not have rounded to the nearest cent and gotten 68.46
