Question

You buy a game for $ 40 , and the sales tax is $2 . What percent of the game price are you paying in sales tax?

Answer 1

So you are buying a video game that is worth $40 and you had to use the sales tax, with is an extra $2, so the percentage would be 5% since 5% = $2 and when you finish filling the percentage to 100%, it would be 100% = $40.

Hope this helped!
