9.95(0.75)(1.06)=7.91

The .75 is the coupon and 1.06 is the sales tax.

If the sales tax is 6%, add the decimal version of 6% to 9.95.

6% ⇒ 0.06

9.95 + 0.06 = 10.01

Since Megan has a 25% off coupon, find 25% of the full price by multiplying 0.25 by 10.01.

25% ⇒ 0.25

10.01 × 0.25 = 2.50

Now subtract 2.50 from 10.01.

10.01 - 2.50 = 7.51

Answer:

The total price of the beads is $7.51.

Hope this helped!
