Question

Inclusive of a 6.8% sales tax, a diamond ring sold for $2029.20. Find the price of the ring before before the tax was added. Round to the nearest cent if necessary

Answer 1

It would be 0.068 x $2029.20 which is 137.9856. Then you take away 137.9856 from $2029.20 which is equal to $1,891.2144
