Question

Nate has $50 to spend at the grocery store. He fills his shopping cart with items totaling $46. At checkout he will have to pay 6% sales tax on all items in the cart. Does he hav e enough money to buy everything in his cart?

Answer 1

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the amount of the sales tax:

46 x 0.06 = 2.76

Add the sales tax to the items total:

46 + 2.76 = 48.76

50 > 48.76

Since $48.76 is less than $50 he has enough money
