Question

Justin and his friend Dan went to the movie. If they each bought popcorn for $4.25 and a soda for $2.25 what was their total bill after adding 5% tax?

Answer 1

2(4.25 + 2.25) = 2(6.50) = 13...this is the cost without the tax

13 + 0.05(13) = 13 + 0.65 = 13.65 <=== total with the sales tax added
