Question

A digital camera costs $185 and the sales tax rate is 5.7%. What is the total cost of the camera after tax

Answer 1

♥ To solve find how much this will cost AFTER the price increases.
♥ Solve:
Multiply the original price as it is by: 1.057 (5.7 as a decimal would be 0.057, but as i said to keep the original price, the 1 will keep it there.) 
$185 * 1.057 = 195.545$
Final answer: $195.54
