<span>(19.27 * 6 ) + 88.22 + 321.77 = total before taxes you then take that total before taxes and multiply it by 4.5% which is .0045. The answer you will get from doing this is the total of the state sales tax. then take the total before taxes and multiply it by 2% which is .02 in decimal form. The answer you will get will be the total city sales tax. then take your total before taxes and add your state sales tax and your city sales tax and you will have your answer. </span>
