Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the sale price of the chair was 25% OFF, then we still have to pay 75% of the original price.  75% as a decimal is .75.  Therefore, .75(80) = 60.  The sale price is $60.  If we pay 15% sales tax, then we are paying 60 + .15(60) which is 60 + 9 = 69

The total cost for the chair on sale plus 15% tax on that sale price is $69
