Angelo purchased some gifts for his younger brothers and sisters online. He bought a dollhouse for $32.59, 2 board games for $12.95 each and 2 movies for $9.99 each. The web site had a promotional offer of $5 off and no shipping fees for any purchase totaling at least $50. Angelo was charged 7.25% tax on his total purchase. How much did Angelo pay for his online purchase?

Answer
A
$78.47
B
$78.80
C
$79.16
D
$84.16

Explanation

The gifts cost $32.59 + 2($12.95) + 2($9.99) = $78.47, so the purchase qualifies for the $5 discount and free shipping. After the discount, the taxable total is $73.47. Adding 7.25% tax gives $73.47 × 1.0725 = $78.796575, which rounds to $78.80, choice B.
