    Regular price is

    4 times 390=1560

    tax=8.25%

    1560 times 0.0825=128.7

    add that

    1560+128.7=1688.7 is price if didn't use promotion

    if deal then

    3 normall trees+1 that is 80% off

    find the 4th tree

    390 times 0.80=312 off

    390-312=78

    3 normal trees+78=3 times 390+78=1248

    find the tax

    0.0825 times 1248=102.96

    add

    1248+102.96=1350.96

    compare prices

    1688.7 no promotion

    1350.96 with promotion

    subtract

    1688.7-1350.96=337.74

    she saved $337.74
