Jon is looking into a 4250 vacation package that is offered for 25% off. there's a 9% resort fee added on to the total. How much will the vacation cost?

When you want to find a percent of a number you do this:

given number / 1 multiplied by percentage/100

so in this question its a multiple step

start with finding 25 percent of 4250 which is = 1062.5

so thats how much the discount is so the amount after the 25% discount is:

4250-1062.5 = 3187.5

then you have to add 9% due to fees

so you find 9% of 3187.5 which is = 286.875

so you add 286.875 to 3187.5 gives you = 3437.375 in total cost for the vacation package
