100% = 1.00 is the cost of the jeans itself
6% = 0.06 is the sales tax to be added
let "cost of jeans" be represented by x
so you will get an expression
(1.00 + 0.06) x + 8.95 = Total Cost
Okay, to find the answer, you would divide the first number by the second number.
38/76=0.5
To find the decimal as a fraction, move the decimal two spots to the right.
0.5=50%
I hope this helped!
