Your mother gave you a $150 to spend. You bought a pair of shoes for $60 and 3 blouses for $25 each and had to pay the 10% sales tax.

You want to take your 4 girlfriends to lunch and it will cost $5.00 each. Can you do it?

    No you cannot because the clothes alone with sales tax are $148.50, and you would need 20 more dollars plus 5 dollars for a meal for yourself if you wanted one.

    No. The shoes and blouses before tax are $135, and $148.50 after tax. That leaves you $1.50 left for lunch.
