Question

$7.50 meal; 6.5% tax _____

Answer 1

Answer:

14.0

Step-by-step explanation:

$7.50 meal + your 6.5$ tax.

We add those and it will equal 14.00

Answer 2

We need to add 100% to it so now it's: 106.5%

Now we need to change it to a decimal and we do that by moving the decimal two spaces to the left.

106.5 = 1.065

We now multiply 1.065 and $7.50

7.50 × 1.065 = 7.9875

We need to round it so now it's $7.99
