18 (.15) = 2.7  She will get 2.70 off the book

18-2.7 =15.30 is the price she will pay for the book before tax

15.3 * .06 =.918 (rounds to .92 because it is money)  is the tax she pays)

15.3 +.92 =16.22 is the book price plus tax

Answer: $16.22 is the total price Ellen pays for the book after discount plus tax

15.3+0.92=16.22
