Ok, so because the necklace is $41 before the 6% sales tax is added, I would suggest that, first, you convert the percentage into a decimal. To do that, I used to make the percent into a dot before moving the dot two spaces to the right. (6% ------> 0.06) Then, I would suggest that you use a trick I learned when dealing with problems like these; add 1 to your new decimal. This makes it so that your original amount remains while also adding your sales tax. (0.06+1=1.06) Then multiply! 41 * 1.06 = 43.46
