Question

The sales tax rate is 3%. If Jeanette buys a robot priced at $233.00, how much tax will she pay?

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is $6.99 in tax, the new total is $239.99

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure out how much tax she is paying, multiply the dollar amount by the decimal form of the percent. In this case, you will be multiplying 233 by 0.3.

233 x 0.3 = 6.99

Now add that amount to the original price to get your new price like this:

233 + 6.99 = 239.99
