Question

Eduardo attends a slime convention in Louisville, Kentucky. He buys a watermelon slime for $9.00 and a waffle slime for $8.50. Louisville’s sales tax is 6%.
What is the sales tax on this purchase?


If necessary, round the amount of tax to the nearest 100th.

A: Not Here
B: $1.10
C: $1.05
D: $10.50

Answer 1

I believe the answer is C! 8.5+9= 17.5, and then you multiply 17.5 by 0.06 and get 1.05. I hope this helps! :)
