The total cost of the book would be:

12.50 * 0.8 = 10

The total cost of the book would be $10.00

Levine · Answer 2

If the book is $12.50 with tax of 8%, the total cost of the book will be the sum of the 2 numbers.

8% of 12.50 is

.08 * 12.50 = 1.00

add 12.50 + 1.00 for a total cost of

$13.50
