Ok here is a couple of word problems for Pre Algebra.

At a sporting goods store, Franklin tennis racquets normally sell for $110, but this week
they're selling for
1
5
less than their normal price. How much has the price on each
racquet been lowered?

The price tag on the remote-controlled helicopter said $79. If Jimmy buys the
helicopter, he'll also have to pay 8% sales tax. How much does the helicopter cost with
tax?

Please explain how you got the answer. I need to know how to do these types of problems.
