    First you would find the 10% discount of $109, which is equal to 90% of $109 or. 9*$109 = $98.10.

    You would then take $98.10 and find the 12% discount with is equal to 88% of $98.10 or. 88*$98.10 = $86.33

    Then you would add a 6% sales tax would would be 106% of $86.33 or 1.06*$86.33 = $91.51

    Thus, she did not have enough to buy, and was $1.51 short.

    So marked down 10 then 12 so 10+12=22

    mark down total is 22%

    100-22=78

    78% of 109=0.78 times 109=85.02

    tax of 6%

    6+100=106%

    85.02 times 1.06=90.1212 or about 90.12

    90<90.12

    no she is short 12 cents
