Are you sure this question is right? there are no negatives? i’m pretty sure the answer is 72 but if i’m wrong, i’m sorry.
A pair of jeans = $40.00
There is a 6.5% sales tax.
First change the % into a decimal by moving the decimal point two spaces to the left.
0.065
Multiply that by 40.00 to find out how much the tax is.
40 × 0.065 = 2.6
Now add the tax to the initial price.
40.00 + 2.6 = 42.60
The total cost is $42.60.
1. simplify 42/60 to 7/10 (42/60 divided by 2 is 21/30, 21/30 divided by 3 is 7/10)
2. if 10 x 10 = 100 than 7 x 10 = 70 so that would make it 70/100 which is 70%
so 70% is the answer
Hope this helps ;)

Answer:
$39.2
Step-by-step explanation:
