Answer:
To calculate the sales tax that is included in a company's receipts, divide the total amount received (for the items that are subject to sales tax) by "1 + the sales tax rate". In other words, if the sales tax rate is 6%, divide the sales taxable receipts by 1.06.
Answer: 4/15
Step-by-step explanation:
-1/3 - -3/5
Two negative signs become positive so it's
-1/3+3/5
Taking the LCM as 15,
-1/3= -5/15
3/5= 9/15
-5/15 + 9/15
= (-5+9)/15
= (9-5)/15 ( just changing the order without changing the sign)
= 4/15
This is the simplest form
(If you need it in decimal form is 0.26666... or 0.267)
Hope it helps
Answer is- -1
Distribute the 4 to the numbers inside he parenthesis. Do the same on the other side, just different numbers. Then subtract the 18d from the 24d. Put the the -12 to the other side This way the variable is isolated. Then divide 6d to get it to just D. Divide by the same number on the other side. Hope this helped! :)
Answer:
$160
Step-by-step explanation:
The bicycle costs the owner of the store 100% of its price.
He then adds 45% of that amount to the cost of the bicycle to come up with the selling price. It is this increase of 45% that is called a 45% markup.
100% + 45% = 145%
The bicycle's selling price is 145% of what it cost the store owner.
Let the original cost be x.
145% of x = $232
1.45x = 232
x = 232/1.45
x = 160
