Answer:

The amount of sales tax Joanna will pay is $3.323

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of the backpack =  $37.98

Sales tax = 8.75%

To Find:

Amount of sales tax that Joanna will pay  = ?

Solution:

Sales tax imposed by the government on the goods that are sold or on the services that is provided. It is collected by the seller who sells the goods

Sales tax  =\frac{\text{sales tax percentage}}{100} \times price

On Substituting the values

Sales tax  = \frac{8.75}{100} \times 37.98

sales tax  = 0.0875 \times 37.98

sales tax  = 3.323
