The initial price was $83.60, then $15.35 was added; 83.6 + 15.35 = $98.95
Then that total dropped by 4.75% .
We can find 10% of 98.95 and simply move the decimal over to the left once.
9.895.
Then to find 5% you divide 10% of 98.95 in half so we have;
9.895 / 2 = 4.948.
Now we know 1% of 5% is 1/5 of the number or .2 , so we can multiply this number by .2 and get ; 4.948 * .2 = .9895.
And we need .25 of 1% so we can multiply this new number by .25 and get; .9895 * .25 = .247
We now subtract this on to the 5% to find 4.75 and get; 4.948 - .247 = 4.7
4 3/4 % of 98.95 is 4.7.
Now we subtract this to 98.95 to find the new total after it dropped that percentage and we get: 98.95 - 4.7 =94.25
