First, convert 1/20 to decimal form:
1/20 = 0.05
This means that the sales tax rate is 5%.
Multiply the cost of the item times 0.05 to get the amount of the sales tax:
25.60 * 0.05 = $1.28 sales tax

What is 82,119 rounded to the nearest ten thousand?
Stels [109]
80,000.
To round up to the nearest ten thousand, we would see if the next lower place value has a amount either 5 or higher or 4 or lower.
If it’s five or higher, we round up.
If it’s four or lower, we round down.
We can see that the number in the ten thousands place is 8. The number in the place value after 8 is 2.
2<5 so we round down.
The answer is 80,000.
Hope this helps!

Terry drove 310 miles in 5 hours at a constant speed. How long would it take him to drive 403 miles at the same speed?
NeX [460]
Well, first, find-out how fast he was going the first time, by dividing 310 by 5. This gives you 62 mph. Now, divide 403 miles by 62 miles per hour in order to find-out how long it would take him to drive 403 miles, if he is constantly doing 62 mph. Your final answer is six-and-a-half hours.
