Question

What is the sales tax of a 150.00 necklace if the sales tax is 6.5%​

Answer 1

Answer:

The best thing to do is to find what 1% is, and you can do this by dividing 150 by 100.

150/100= 1.5

As you're looking for 6.5%, you've got to multiply 1.5 by 6.5

1.5*6.5= 9.75

You've then got to add 9.75 and 150 together

150+9.75= $159.75

Therefore, after the sales tax, the cost of the necklace is $159.75

Hope this helps!
