Answer:

Tom paid $23.54 while his cousin spent $18.72. Tom spent more on tax $.082 more than his cousin.

Explanation:

Tom

Cost of shirt = $22

Sales tax = 7%

Total amount paid = 22 + (7% × 22)

                               = 22 + 1.54

                               = $23.54

Tom's cousin

Cost of shirt = $18

Sales tax = 4%

Total amount paid = 18 + (4% × 18)

                               = 18 + 0.72

                               = $18.72

Tom spent more on tax as he spent $1.54 as against his cousin's $0.72.
