Question

$2.95 notebooks; 5% tax

Answer 1

Turn 5% into a decimal which is 0.05, then multiply by 2.95 = 0.1475
round it off, which is 0.15
so $0.15 is the tax and if ur looking for the total price then add $2.95 to $0.15

Answer 2

Answer:

cost with tax would be $3.10

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of the notebooks = $2.95

Tax rate = 5%

Tax = 5% × 2.95

      =  $\frac{5}{100}$ × 2.95

      = 0.05 × 2.95

      = 0.1475 ≈ $0.15

Total cost of the note book = $2.95 + $0.15

                                              = $3.10

The tax on the price of notebook would be $0.15 and the total cost of the notebook would be $3.10.
