First, determine the difference between the amount Percy paid and the price of the basketball. That is, $24.10 - $22.99 = $1.11. Divide this value by the price of the basketball and multiply the quotient by 100% to get the tax rate. 
                            ($1.11 / $22.99) x 100% = 4.8%
Thus, the sales tax is approximately equal to 4.8%.

Neil has 3 partially full cans of white paint. They cantain 1/3 gallon, 1/5 gallon, and 1/2 gallon of paint. About how much pain
Marianna [84]

Answer:

1  1/30 gallons, or 31/30 gallons of paint

Step-by-step explanation:

Before these fractions can be added together they have to have a common denominator.  The Least Common Multiple of 2, 3, and 5 is 30, so

1/3 = 10/30   1/5 = 6/30   1/2 = 15/30

10/30 + 6/30 + 15/30 = 31/30, or 1  1/30
