Question

The price of the bicycle that Rocco wants to buy is $282. How much will Rocco pay for the bicycle if the state tax rate is 4%?

Answer 1

Answer:

Rocco payes $292.28

Step-by-step explanation:

Because it is an increase so you put 104% over 100% in fraction form and then  you put 282 at the bottom of another part of a fraction then you do 100 divided by 282 and you get 2.82 so then you take that 2.82 and you multiply it by 104% and you get 292.28 you can use a calculator to check but i know i did it correctly
