Answer 2

Answer:

702

Step-by-step explanation:

We can convert the sales tax to a fraction by dividing by 100:

$=8/100=2/25$

To determine the total price after tax, we must determine the price taxed:

$=650*(2/25)=1300/25=52$

Therefore to obtain the total price we must add the taxed price to the cheese wheel price before tax.

$=650+52=702$

The total price is $702
