1 answer

To find out how much Megan paid for the beads, we need to subtract the discount from the original price and then add the sales tax.

10% of $9.95 = $0.995 (discount)
$9.95 - $0.995 = $8.955 (price after discount)

6% of $8.955 = $0.5373 (sales tax)
$8.955 + $0.5373 = $9.4923

Therefore, Megan paid $9.49 for the beads.
