The different expressions that represent the price of the item after tax will be p + 6/100p and p + 0.06p.

<h3>How to illustrate the expression?</h3>

The first expression will be:

= p + (6/100 × p)

= p + 6/100p

The second expression will be:

= p + (6% × p)

= p + 0.06p

It should be noted that both expressions are equal.
