A sales tax is an extra amount that is added onto a total. A percent increase is almost the same cause 8% sales tax and 8% increase is both the same amount of the total that is going to be added onto the total.

Because when you buy something and there is a sales tax it adds the choosen percentage to the price. So like if there is a Bike for $75 and the Goverment wants 8% of the $75 the store would charge $6 more because 8% of $75 is $6 and the sales tax would be that $6

Lance used two gallons of paint to pain 785 square feet. How many gallons will he need to purchase to cover 2,500 square feet?

Digiron [165]

Answer:

7 gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the space that needs paints by how much space has been painted

2500/785 = 3.18

Then double that because it takes 2 gallons to paint every 785 square feet

3.18 x 2 = 6.36

You would need 6.36 gallons of paint, which would round up to 7 because you cannot buy 0.36 of a gallon
