The gift with tax is $17.55
8% as a decimal equals 0.08
To find out how much the tax is, you multiply 17.55 by 0.08
(17.55)(0.08)=1.40
Then, you subtract 1.40 from 17.55 to get the price of the gift before the tax was added.
$17.55-$1.40=$16.14

Explanation:
A fallacy refers to a faulty argument or argument that is invalid due to problems in the reasoning process, these issues are classified into different types of fallacies such as ad hominem faulty analogy, division, etc. In the case of division fallacy, this occurs when the speaker assumes something is true and valid about the parts that compose a unit just because this is true about the unit or the whole, which means the speaker believes. This occurs in the argument "That baseball team won the World Series, so the players must be outrageously talented baseball players", because the author of this argument assumes all the players are "outrageously talented" because the team or whole is talented, which is invalid as there might be players that are not that talented although the whole team was able to win.
