First, add up the costs of the Xbox, controller, and the walk through manual.
49.99 + 34.95 + 19.99 = 104.93
The total cost of the three items (not including tax) is $104.93.
Sales tax is a tax paid on goods and services, which means it would be added onto the purchase.
To calculate the sales tax, convert the percentage of tax to a decimal, and then multiply the cost of the goods by the decimal, and finally add the two together.
8.25% ÷ 100 = 0.0825
104.93 × 0.0825 = 8.656725
Add the tax to the cost of the items:
104.93 + 8.656725 = 113.586725
This can be rounded to 113.6 to the nearest tenth.
