Ganezh [65]

Answer:

$0.76

Step-by-step explanation:

3.79+2.57+5.8=12.16

12.16 x 0.0625=0.76

To solve this, you have to add all the prices together and then convert the percentage into a number so that you can multiply it by the total sales. You end up with 0.76 cents as the taxes for Akio's Purchase.You convert the percentage by moving it backward 2 decimal places.
