Answer:

7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the difference.

64.19 - 59.99 = 4.20

Divide the difference by the cost of the item originally:

4.20 / 59.99 = about .07

Change this number to a percentage by moving the decimal to the right two spaces, so that would be 7%.

The sales tax in the area is 7%.

Subtract 59.99 from 64.19.

64.19 - 59.99 = 4.20

<u>The tax she paid was $4.20, so now we need to find the percentage.</u>

Divide 4.20 by 59.99.

4.20 ÷ 59.99 = 0.07

Multiply 0.07 by 100 to find the percentage.

0.07 × 100 = 7

<u>The sales tax in the area was 7%.</u>
