Answer:
third one
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write a proportion for this problem
10,000drops of a liquid is 10 fluid ounces
100 drops of a liquid is x fluid ounces
x=100*10/10000 =1/10 = 0.1 fluid ounces
X= sales tax %
Step 1:
$240 * sales tax %= $12
240 * x= 12
240x=12
Divide both sides by 240
x= 0.05 (decimal of the %)
Convert to %:
Multiply decimal by 100 (or move decimal to the right two decimal places
=0.05 x 100
=5 %
The sales tax is 5%.
Hope this helps! :)
I am pretty sure it is customary
