Question

County

Answer 1

Answer:

$0.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Tax of Delaware is 7.25%

Tax of Fairfield is 6.5%

In decimal that would be:

Tax in Delaware = 7.25/100 = 0.0725

Tax in Fairfield = 6.5/100 = 0.065

We find respective percentages of $80 and add it to get final price. Then we find HOW MUCH MORE is cost in Delaware THAN FairField.

Delaware Cost:

80 + (0.0725)(80) = $85.80

Fairfield Cost:

80 + (0.065)(80) = $85.20

It costs more by:

85.80 - 85.20 = $0.60
